The Impact of Early School Start Times on TeensDebbieOMoore
Since the 1990's, school districts across the country have utilized a tiered bus system and staggered school start times to save money. Based on zero science, high school students were often selected to start the day in the 7:00 o'clock hour. Research now has irrefutably shown that early school start times are detrimental for adolescents. Sleep deprivation among teens is widespread and chronic. Many school boards resist delaying high school start times due to myths and fear of change.

teen council who LOVE duct tape. Last year, one of them
volunteered to
teach a summer reading program (Duct Tape Lockers, where
teens
essentially covered boxes with duct tape). The program was my
highest
attended program and the easiest for me since I had worked
with him and
prepared him to teach a program. The success of that program
has opened
up opportunities for me to have more Teen Council members
teach
programs, which is always a huge help to myself and Teen and
Adult Staff
(I'm the only teen librarian).

28. We just called them "night creatures," and
I just had a picture example and they went
to town!
It was just material and felt scraps, jewels,
and chenille stems, kind of like the
mummy you had us make out of florist
wire and crepe paper.

39. • We also had a large turnout for Wookie Tissue
box covers.

40. • Rube Goldberg Machine (Teen Tech Week
build a machine. I had a general plan ahead of
time but incorporated the kids’ ideas as we
went. I was amazed by their creativity. Watch
tons of YouTube videos to get good ideas.
With our limited time we weren’t able to have
a success but most of the steps worked
separately and they had a great time!)
Elkhart Public Library
41. A Rube Goldberg machine, contraption,
invention, device, or apparatus is a
deliberately over-engineered or overdone
machine that performs a very simple task
in a very complex fashion, usually including
a chain reaction. The expression is named
after American cartoonist and inventor
Rube Goldberg (1883–1970).
57. • Last night we had Karaoke Night for our
Manga club, it was AWESOME. Everyone got
up and sang voluntarily. I was shocked.
• Bedford Public Library
61. • HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN! PARTY
• In January, we celebrated the 39th
anniversary of
the debut of the TV show “Happy Days” with
music, games, and food from the 1950s. Dressing
up in 50s fashion was optional, but those who did
were given a small prize. Competition activities
included a 1950s trivia quiz, hula hoop contest,
“Name That Tune,” and a “car hop” relay. We
also had Yahtzee and Checkers out for those
who wanted to play. Snacks were potato chips,
popcorn, M&Ms, and Coke or Root Beer floats.
• Vigo County Public Library
62. • UN-VALENTINE’S DAY PARTY
• We celebrated everything UN-Valentine.
Teens learned how to make duct tape roses
from another teen, made un-valentine cards,
created funny captions for valentine pictures,
defaced candy hearts, and made their own
catapults to launch the candy hearts across
the room. Theme-based snacks were “broken
heart cookies” (sugar cookies broken in half),
chocolate hearts, and red drinks.

tribute costume contest, snacks from the
"Mellark Bakery," and I also printed off

kids were given a name, a district, and how
they died

prior to the party.)

67. • WHAT HAPPENED TO SANTA?
• Santa mysteriously disappeared! Teens had to help find
him in time for Christmas by putting together clues earned
by participating crafts and other activities. The clues were
individual words that when arranged in order practically
spelled out what happened to him. Crafts included making
graham cracker houses, decorating potholders, sun
catchers, and cookies; making “peace” beaded and
reindeer ornaments; building snowmen out of cotton balls;
making cone hats, and dipping pretzels in white chocolate.
Activities were a Simpson’s trivia quiz, “Santa Got Run Over
by a Reindeer Bowling,” and a “Gift Box” piñata held the
key to finding Santa: We had to sing “Santa Claus is
Coming to Town” and then he (actually a she) appeared!
• Created by the TAB group at the Vigo County Public Library
68. • Murder Mystery Party
• -purchased a murder mystery game and asked
for volunteers to play characters (I usually had
more people attend than there were
characters)
• (winner of the game received a copy of The
Hunger Games and I booktalked a bunch of
different mysterys available at the library)

69. Teen Council
• Target teens already coming to your library
• Give them a reason to exist…Grant? Have
them help you plan your programs?
• Feed them
• Review Books for your department
• Have a mission and goals
70. • The top teen program at the Mitchell Library this year
was when we recorded the Harlem Shake (getting all
photo permission forms, of course) at the library, then
had the teens edit the video. Teens with their own
devices edited the video they (or a parent) shot on that
device, while kids without a device used the library's
raw footage. Library staff was made available to the
teens to help them in the editing process, but the
teens preferred to figure it out on their own. We had
over 20 teens and tweens shooting or participating in
the Harlem Shake, and 3 edits were submitted. I
posted the one best on our Facebook page, and the
others have our "seal of approval" on YouTube.
