Growing up as a child, our elementary school had PE class every day for one hour, then after lunch, we played outside for 1 hour. This was from K-6th grade. In middle (7-8) and then 9-12, our both schools had pools, we were required to take PE class and exercised every day for 1 hour a day, not today. Public schools are terrible when it comes to nutritional lunches, Chocolate Milk, Pizza, French fries, Cheese Burgers, Chips, Pasta, Soda & Snake vending machines... we are setting kids up to fail.
The biggest problem is many schools are now cutting back on physical exercise programs as they can no longer afford them, but look at the huge cost? It is slowly killing and damaging these kids life's, who one day grow up to be obese adults that struggle with weight issues, because as children they were never taught properly about the benefits of exercise and nutrient in school. Kids spend more time at school, then they do at the home, so it is important to keep them on track for their future.
In elementary school I didn't get that much exercise. Phys. ed. classes were not daily and because the periods were only about 35 min long, we basically got 20 min at most of exercise when you eliminate changing time and the idiotic process of sitting in special lines before we would be told what we were going to do (took at least 5-10min). Then we were allowed to start warming up.
well,im 14 and at my school we do QDPA 20 minites of exiresizeing every day i think that ever school should do this be case its fun and it really helps

@whossh17723 I agree. I'm 13 and in my school, we have at least 40 minutes of physical education. It's a lot of fun and is beneficial.
