Nothing in this about how much the kids go outside.

15 minutes once a day.

Our school's PreK outdoor time is ~45-1hr per day.

If you care about how much outdoor time, be sure to ask for the school policy on whether teachers may withhold recess as a behavior management tool. Also ask what they do when the weather isn't good-- some schools have nice spaces to use or creative arrangements, others don't have as much space. Also ask about temperature guidance.

The ratios are different for tile 1 schools vrs non-title 1/ head start.
Though it may all be irrelevant soon. As they plan to cut headstart funding.
