Read the paragraph below from an argumentative essay about school policy. Claim: Schools should adopt later start times because doing so measurably improves student learning. Paragraph: A district in Minnesota shifted its high school start time from 7:25 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. After the change, the district reported that first-period failure rates dropped from 14% to 8% and average attendance rose by 1.7 percentage points. This shows that when school starts later, students do better in first period and come to school more often. Which revision of the bolded commentary would best explain the significance of the evidence in relation to the paragraph's claim?
