[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The lack of gym for elementary age isn't a big deal, nor is the lack of a cafeteria.  Those things have very little impact on the educational experience for elementary school kids. Is it really so bad for young kids to play outside as much as possible, or to eat lunch at their desks?

With all due respect, this is Maryland we are talking about. There are several weeks during the year children are unable to play outside because it is too cold. They need a gym.

A cafeteria is also nice because a lot of families prefer lunch being provided by the school.[/quote]

When my kids were at Grace Episcopal Day School in Kensington a few years ago, they didn't serve lunch except for pizza on Friday. Nobody cared and it's widely regarded as a great elementary school.[/quote]

No gym, either.  The basketball team would practice outside on the blacktop during the winter.  Builds character...and they won lots of games![/quote]
