The Benefits to School Recess

1

20% More Likely to Earn a Higher Grade

According to the research found in PlayOn!, students who are active during the day are 20% more likely to earn an A in math or English. Support your students by adding playground structures, outdoor obstacle courses, playground swing sets, or other school playground equipment to keep children active during recess!

 

2

6% Increase in Standardized Test Scores

Increased physical activity throughout the school day helps increase standardized test scores by 6% over 3 years. That's a huge difference! You can also combine play with outdoor education to help children better retain subject matter.

3

21% Decrease in Behavior Management

Just one physically active lesson each week creates a 13% increase in students' physical activity and decreases 21% of teachers' time managing behavior. Not only does this help students learn more, but your teachers will also thank you!

National Demonstration Sites (NDS) are playgrounds that showcase leadership in best practice design, support health-related initiatives, and collect data that stakeholders can use to understand the sites’ impact on the community. Through five distinct categories, the NDS program facilitates the translation of research into practical implementation at local parks.
