Did you know that over 50% of kids are dehydrated? Often times it’s because kids are busy working all school day. Water is vital for the human body. It allows oxygen to flow to the brain, improving brain function and academic performance. Water breaks will also give short breaks, allowing students to retain more information. We plan on sending this petition to Mr. Ziegler and Mr. Snider, in order to put this plan into effect. We plan on having 4 breaks with a duration of 3 minutes at 8:15, 10:25, 12:15, and 2:15. These breaks will not be intrusive, but will rather be beneficial to everyone’s academic performance.

Updates

February 18, 2021

The volume of support has now reached a level that allows me to formally request a meeting with Mr. Ziegler and Mr. Snider. I am currently finalizing the presentation that outlines the specific break schedules and the academic data to support our proposal.

Kids are basically plants with complicated emotions. They need water to grow and learn. Just let them drink!

You say 3 breaks but list 4 times- just an FYI. Water is important and is support efforts to get kids to pause and rehydrate!
