We the parents of the Westbrook School community call for the current school administration to immediately end the practice of canceling recess due to temperatures being below 32 degrees. Barring rain or extreme cold, defined as air temperature bellow 20 degrees or a wind chill warning issued by the National Weather Service, our children should have 30 minutes or recess as outlined by MCPS policy.


Since there is no MCPS policy regarding "cold weather recess" it is the sole discretion of the school administration. The health and wellness of our children is of the utmost importance. Getting outside for 30 minutes of physical activity it not only critical to their health and wellness it is also essential to their ability to focus on learning for the second half of the school day.
