I do not have any supporting documentation on your question, however, I would hope that your school would be flexible to accomodate those persons who have a legitimate disability, or in this case a sleep disorder, which prevents them from arising or arriving to school at that time in the morning. Lack of understanding, esp. with students in school, can only diminish their self-esteem, make them feel stupid or lazy, and does nothing to encourage them to succeed. On the other hand if they can get there on time, I would expect them to. Please have on hand available literature (or know where to get it) should this situation arise.
