Brief Summary

If teenagers attain the recommended amount of sleep (9-9.5 hours per night), they will feel less stress and have better athletic and academic performance. The investigators will track students sleep patterns before and after a sleep intervention where they are given a packet of sleep tips and encouraged to improve their sleep hygiene. Outcomes include stress levels, academic/athletic performance, and sleep cycle data from the sleep tracking watch.
