5th grade is the hardest working grade in elementary, they need more of a break. For 10 more minutes more. If we get at least 65 signatures we will send it to the principal to get approved

I have been hearing from so many of you about how exhausted your kids are after sitting in class all day. This extra time for them to play and clear their minds is such a small change that would mean everything for their focus.

Seeing this kind of energy for my daughter and her classmates has truly caught me off guard. It feels like people finally understand that our kids are completely burnt out and need this extra time to just be children.

hope the principal listens lol. good luck everyone
10 minutes is honestly not even that much to ask for. my brain is fried by lunch every single day.
we seriously need this. sitting at those desks for so long is killing me.
Almost the whole grade signed this. Let’s send it soon! (Also why is the petition goal 30 but the real goal is 65? I question your sanity Colin
YESSS finally someone said it. fifth grade is way too stressful
we sit in class and lunch with extra work time every day so I think this is some thing that needs to happen i have ben to 3 schools and they each gave the same amount aka 20 minutes

I think fifth grade really deserves more recess. We work so hard, and we have harder work. The little kids always get rewarded for doing the little things but we don’t for the big things. And getting more recess will get rid of all of our energy.
