[quote=Anonymous]DC is new to this center (5th grade) and came home and told me that because of a "block schedule" for specials, there will be no recess on certain days. I was quite perplexed so checked with a neighbor's child who verified that in 5th grade last year on some days there was no recess or a shortened recess. I find this to be unacceptable. Kids need to go outside and get fresh air/exercise. Recess is so short as it is, why do they need to cut it out or cut it back? Isn't there an FCPS rule that elementary age kids need a certain amount of recess? This only adds to the many reasons that obesity is a big pediatric problem these days. [/quote]
