Hi! Maryland mom here advocating for MORE RECESS TIME for our children!

Currently, there is NO STATEWIDE MANDATE FOR RECESS. This leaves it up to schools and counties to regulate recess time, with some counties recommending as little as 0-15 minutes of recess per day.

Children are not designed to sit for long stretches of the school day. Recess gives students an essential opportunity for unstructured play, physical activity, creativity, social connection, and independence.

Research consistently supports the role of recess in children’s physical, social, emotional, and academic well-being. When children have opportunities to move and play throughout the day, they can return to the classroom better prepared to focus and learn.

Join us as we call on policymakers to guarantee Maryland students 60 minutes of recess every school day!

Three additional early voting locations are scattered throughout the county. Visit Harford Board of Elections to find the location closest to you.
