[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington Parks and Rec is only putting restrictions in place starting at 1 PM. This was just a knee jerk APS decision that didn't get any actual thought.[/quote] Incorrect. Read policies. [/quote] I can understand why APS has taken some of the "thinking" out of this. But it is certainly annoying. Why can't elementary kids go outside when it's in the 90s (which will be the temp for all of them since recess is almost always before 1pm)? Kids can certainly handle 15 minutes of 95 degree heat without adverse consequences. It does make sense to alter the HS sports schedules etc, which take place in the hottest part of the day. We have outdoor recess from 7:35-7:50 and that was canceled today too. It was a perfect morning for running around! It just feels like the policy is getting in the way of common sense.[/quote]
