I’ve taught Kindergarten for 18 years. You know how you see boys and girls just trip and fall over their own feet? I don’t see that anymore. They have a lot more flexibility and stamina.

We are so excited about the upcoming year with all of our LiiNK districts! Below is an excerpt from Little Elm ISD's FB page and a link to the most recent Wall Street Journal article.
From Little Elm:
"We are proud to say that beginning 2017-2018, we will be a LiiNK Project district at all Little Elm ISD elementary campuses. We are the only district in Texas to provide four 15 minute recesses to students through a researched based program through Dr. Debbie Rhea with TCU. We are pleased with the results from 2016-2017 at Chavez, Hackberry, and Oak Point that all second graders will be phased into the project and students in K-1 at Prestwick, Lakeview, and Brent will be added. Thanks to the Wall Street Journal for emphasizing the importance of recess and showing how recess is a hot topic across the country!"
