[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe with cold temperatures some children are going to get sick. Why dont the schools make a plan to keep some of them indoors .I think that in this situation you can ask to stay indoors if wanted / needed.[/quote] I grew up in New England. We had snow on the ground typically from November to April. We would leave shoes at school and wear boots to and from school every day. We always had outdoor recess. I remember one year we got a January thaw and the soccer field flooded and then froze, we brought in skates and skated at recess. No one ever got sick from being in the cold. We did do PE indoors for the second and third quarters of the year. But I also remember doing outdoor PE in October and the ground had already frozen, it was like playing on concrete. [/quote]
