As one of the co-founders of the nonprofit, Say Yes to Recess, I could not be prouder to support HB1507. Our team has worked diligently to educate and communicate on the research supporting optimal daily recess time for students everywhere. New Hampshire is leading the way in proposing this landmark legislation. The priorities in educating our children should support optimal growth of the whole child. HB 1507 mandates a substantial amount of daily, outdoor play for all public school students in NH. 60 minutes of recess translates into better learning in the classroom and the positive results are seen almost instantly. Say Yes to Recess is committed to research based amounts of recess implemented daily in order to better the daily lives of students and teachers alike. Thank you for reading!
