It's sad that they either don't care or just don't want to be bothered to come up with a solution. Kids break time is meeting with their advisors or going to lockers for 2 minutes between classes.
No wonder so many kids are getting fat. No movement then 2 hours of homework after school.


They actually changed it last year so that kids have recess every day.

It’s a 4 year old thread.

Super untrue. A friend of mine was in the advanced classes and chose to move down due to extracurriculars and the amount of homework in those classes. You can also move up if your teacher sees you're too advanced for the class.
