Guidelines for Outdoor Play in Cold Weather: Some schools continue to keep children inside when the temperature is below 32 degrees. This is not consistent with current Health Department recommendations or current DOE policy. Children benefit from vigorous exercise and should be given the opportunity to play outside whenever possible. Unless it is snowing or there is ice on the playground, low temperatures should not be a barrier to outside play, as long as children are appropriately dressed. The Health Department strongly encourages principals to maintain outdoor play periods on the vast majority of winter days.

I agree that rigorous play is essential to our youth. Please assist us with making sure that our students have the appropriate outside clothing so that all may participate in our recess times. The decision to play outside will be made on a day-to-day basis.

Sincerely,

Fred Wright, Principal PS/MS 219

亲爱的家长，

最近有一些老师和家长询问关于午饭后操场活动的政策，我想将教育局的有关政策列在下面：

关于在寒冷季节户外活动条例：

有一些学校在华氏32度以下持续将孩子们留在室内活动，这与目前纽约市教育局健康部门的政策相违背，孩子们从有活力的锻炼中受益良多，因此应尽量多地安排学生在户外活动。除非下雪或结冰，如果孩子衣着保暖，低温不应成为孩子户外活动的障碍，教育局健康部门特别鼓励在冬季中保持户外活动的时间。

我赞同教育局的观点，我们青少年需要有活力的户外活动。请协助我们，让您孩子穿着保暖，可以在中午活动时间在学校操场里玩耍。活动具体安排根据每天天气决定。

诚挚地，

Fred Wright

P.S./M.S. 219 学校校长

Saludos a todo nuestro personal y padres de familia,

Varios padres y personal de la escuela han preguntado acerca de nuestra política para ir al patio a la hora del recreo. Yo planeo seguir la política del DOE (Departamento de Educación) como lo dice aquí abajo:

Guía para jugar afuera en el frío Algunas escuelas continúan manteniendo a los estudiantes dentro del edificio cuando la temperatura es bajo los 32 grados. Esto no va de acuerdo con las recomendaciones del Departamento de Salud o con las políticas del DOE. Los niños y niñas se benefician con el ejercicio vigoroso y se les debe dar la oportunidad de jugar afuera siempre que sea posible. A menos de que este nevando o de que haya hielo en la patio de recreo, las bajas temperaturas no deberían ser una barrera para jugar afuera, siempre y cuando los niños estén vestidos apropiadamente. El Departamento de Salud recomienda fuertemente a los principales a mantener periodos de juego afuera en la vasta mayoría de los días de invierno.

Yo estoy de acuerdo con que el juego riguroso es esencial para nuestra juventud. Por favor ayúdenos asegurándose de que nuestros estudiantes tengan las ropas apropiadas para estar afuera para que todos puedan participar en nuestra hora de recreo. La decisión para jugar afuera será hecha en una base diaria.

Sinceramente,

Fred Wright, Principal PS/MS 219
