Petition: Longer Fresh Air Breaks

The Issue

Hello Students,

Regarding the back-to-school hybrid issue, we now have "fresh air breaks". These fresh air breaks are only 10 minutes. This affects the mental and physical health of students.

It is far too short for doing any reasonable exercise or conversation. In all other times, students must stay distanced and muted.

Just remember to stay at least 3 feet apart. the recommended is 6 feet, but stay AT LEAST 3 feet apart.

One anonymous student says: "It should be longer because it will help our education. We will be much more refreshed with longer breaks outside."

Another student says: "It's way too short, there is not enough time to talk with friends. It's only 10 minutes, but we spend 3 minutes getting there, and 3 minutes back."

According to the internet, kids should have a minimum of 3 hours outside, and 1 hour of exercise. We spend 6 hours doing school-related subjects and we also need to have sufficient sleep and eating times.

Without enough break time, students' focus and productivity levels will be low and they will not learn as much as they could with longer breaks.
