Sparks, S. D. (2019, August 05). High School Naps May Boost Learning for Sleep-Deprived Teenagers. Retrieved August 2, 2019.

Naps in highschool students may be more beneficial to students than longer hours of continuous sleep at night. Teens can benefit as much from a two hour nap compared to cramming for a test, and the information is remembered for a longer time. Alertness, focus, motivation, and ability all increase in students who have an afternoon nap.
