South Lakewood Elementary follows the district guidelines for daily recess. All student have two recesses each day. The second recess is on the master schedule and is at least 10 minutes. Our total recess time is 35 minutes for all students. The adults who supervise recess attend training and work collaboratively to develop stronger recess rules and routines, increase physical activity, learn new outdoor and indoor movement games, and build skills around behavior management. Recess at our school is not withheld for academic or behavior reasons.
