If you expect recess at middle school to prevent your kid from being a fat arse you are cognitively deficient.

I was gonna say the same thing. No wonder the child obesity numbers in this country is at an all time high. This country is fricking retarded.

Recess has been replaced with Teacher's screwing students.

Funny enough I was just talking to my daughter that is in middle school, she mentioned that she has two recess times, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. P.E. everyother day.

I was in middle school in the late 90's early 00's and we had 20 minutes for recess right after lunch, plus P.E. everyday. Highschool we had a lengthy lunch period to hang out for a while.

We stopped having recess after 6th grade, but I had daily PE until the end of 10th grade.

In high school, the options were either ROTC, gym class, or going to your JV or varsity sport. You needed four terms total, and any combination of those activities counted as PE. I thought that was legit.

By junior year, if you had a car, you could leave at 2:40.

Why have recess where normal kids can burn off excess energy when you can just label them hyperactive and drug them?

We had lunch. You could finish the lunch early and high tale it to the basketball courts or the benches outside and gossip.

Or just skip lunch all together and get straight to a court

Went to Haynes Middle/Jr. High in Old Metairie, 6th-9th grade 1975-1979 (they switched from a middle school to a jr. high while I was there).

There was no recess back then, and certainly not in high school afterwards. And there was no preponderance of 'fat asses' either....

At my middle school (mid-late 80's) recess stopped after 5th grade, but we also had PE every year through the 8th grade. In high school you were only required to take one year of PE. If you played sports that counted as PE requirement. All athletes had "PE" 7th period (last of the day) and that is when we would start practice. If you were not a multiple sport athlete you could just go home early if it was the off-season of your sport.

We had recess from K-12. We didn’t have uniforms either.

I was in middle school in the mid 90s and we didn’t have recess. We mostly sat around a picnic table and talked for forty minutes.
