Give all School Children the Right to Daily Recess!

The Issue

ALL of our precious elementary school children need to have the opportunity to expand their social skills and recharge their batteries with daily recess, so they are more receptive to learning when they get back in the classroom. Why are we treating them like machines, whose only purpose is to make a certain score on a certain test?! Give our kids the basic human right to breathe fresh air and enjoy the outdoors!  BE OUR CHILDREN'S ADVOCATE, TODAY!!
