Hell yea, I always passed recess with flying colors!
I’m proud to say that I served on my local school board for several years and kept recess from getting cut in elementary and middle school. In elementary they wanted to drop from 2 to 1 and in middle school they wanted to eliminate it all together. I also tried to get lunch time expanded across the district k-12 but never was able to get that done. I can also say that at least in our district it really did help when we got lots of emails on a topic. So few people get involved that when there is an issue that gets attention the board really would listen. Of course, there are some things that can’t be changed because of budget, but issues like this one, dress code, etc. that don’t have real budget impacts were easy wins.
Always had long recess when I was a kid. Had to have been like 45min. Always outside, unless it was raining, or below a certain temp in the winter. Lots of playground equipment, and huge open grassy areas to run around.
Great to see more focus on recess! I remember being a kid and time always felt so agonizingly long in elementary school. A couple hours as an adult feels like a day as a child. I remember we only had 10 minutes for recess but it felt so much longer and was always so exciting to run outside and feel the chilly morning air with my friends.
They removed recess mid-way through middle school for me. The thing I noticed was that kids quickly stopped trying to play outside after school when recess died. Not sure it was the best move.
Good! This is such a massive negative mental health harm, especially at you g developing ages. It sends kids into downward self esteem spirals.
We specifically make sure neurodivergent IEP plans can NOT take away recess time for exactly this reason.
