When I was in school, if we got in trouble we spent recess running not sitting.

This policy is being implemented with the advent of increased school accountability and student testing procedures, and the belief that time could be better spent on academics. This disturbing phenomenon has no serious research to back it up, and is actually counterproductive to increasing the academic achievements of students" ~ naecs.crc.uicu.edu/position

Our schools our run like a military base.

Play is learning. Thank you for this opportunity to sign a petition that address an issue that is affecting children to grow up too fast in a robotic society that does not encourage relaxation.
