Senator Shirley K. Turner (D-Mercer) the Vice Chair of the Education Committee believes that educators should look at recess as something that is part of a curriculum rather than something that takes away time from learning. The Association for Childhood Education International estimates that 40% of US schools have reduced or eliminated recess. This number may be even higher among high-minority, underserved populations.
