[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally a judgment call for the principal--if you think the kids are staying in too often for reasons that aren't good enough, bring it up with the PTA and see if other parents agree.  I'm a teacher in MCPS, and at our elementary school, the kids DO go out in the snow.  It's very rare to have indoor recess.  Pretty much the only time they stay in is if it's a driving rain--if it's just sprinkling, they go out.  If it's been raining all day and stops at 1 o'clock with just one recess left, that last recess goes out.

It's a principal thing, not a blanket MCPS policy, so there's no sense in complaining about how rigid or wimpy MCPS is, or how terrible this generation will grow up to be because they aren't as hardy as people from Chicago or NY.[/quote]

Thanks for clearing that up.  Your explanation tells me that there are a bunch of wussy principals in this county who became wusses because they were pampered in their formative years.[/quote]
