Is this sentence using ‘sleepy,’ and ‘tired’ acceptable?

Is this sentence using ‘sleepy,’ and ‘tired’ acceptable? Does it sound natural? To me, it sounds awkward, and I’ve got no idea how to fix it. I’m not a native speaker of English, you know.

When you get inside our classroom, you will not miss to see students who have been sleepy and tired because of rushing to do school projects.
