It appears as though my son and many other students are very unhappy with school!!!! There are many factors that are currently effecting this that we don't have control over. However, helping them with their "Cabin Fever" might make a small difference. I could fill this boring research backed studies involving student performance and outdoor activities but I am not!!!
So if you agree that our children should have an option to go outside during recess and play in the snow please take a minute and sign this petition. I will be presenting this to the Northport-East Northport BOE at the next available meeting. And most important, please pass this along to as many other parents as you can.

For example - at Dickinson, they might even be able to take a "walk" around the school on the paths to get some exercise and fresh air. My son plays outside almost every day after school , but at this time of year there is not much daylight left by then,
I would like to see the kids get some fresh air for a few mins
Recess is a healthy and necessary part of the day.
I want my daughter to be able to play outsie if the temp is over 32 F.
If the temp is at or above 32, our kids should be outside!
Children need fresh air and studies have shown they perform better on school work after a little exercise.
I would like my child to be allowed to go out for recess even if there is snow on the ground

Just been in Sweden, where the children 2 yr and up, ALWAYS is outside during recess! They learn to dress themselves earlier, no obesity, healthier and preform better in school. So if it is 30F, did you as a child get frostbite??! Let them play and be children!!!!!
