I couldn't agree more with this petition. Physical exercise improves the quality of life for anyone needless to say how much young teenagers who are under much stress academically and socially could benefit from such a change. It will increase their productivity in school and I'm certain will produce a much better focused and goal oriented students.
Also, I cannot stress enough how damaging it is to kids of this age not to have recess outdoors during the day.
They will be better and the teachers will receive a much better focused and less antsy crowd.
Please apply these changes.

With everyone becoming more seditary along with increased technology use, it is important to convey the importance of exercise by having gym each day. Exercise can also help alleviate some of the stress that the kids these days face. Finally, Kids should be allowed and encouraged to go outside at lunch time. I understand that this practice stopped due to construction of the GEO Thermal system, but has never been reinstated.

Fix the auditorium situation and give the kids some free time to move. They also do not have enough time for lunch. They should not be put in a situation where they have to shove food down their throats. This is detrimental to their health and weight conditions as well.

I think this is a very important issue. When kids enter school in the dark, and leave school with just an hour or two of daylight, having gym in school makes a huge difference. I see both my 6th and 7th grader in a “funk” during their quarter of health. They need that break in the day that Physical Education gives them to make them feel healthy and productive. Thanks!

Middle School is a critical time for extra P.E. due to the gap between elementary-age sports (youth baseball, soccer, football) and the opportunity to join the HS teams. P.E. should also include other wellness education such as nutrition, importance of enough sleep, use of sun block, and limiting backpack weight.

The students spend far too much time sitting and doing HW. No time for outside activities during the school week. P E is very necessary in their life - it’s the only physical activity they get for most of the school year.
