Quick Message You Can Send to your Rep:
LAUSD Board Primary Election Date: June 2, 2026
Hi [Board Member Name],
I’m a parent/community member in your district and wanted to share a concern about how little time students have for meaningful, usntructured play during the school day.
​
I know the 30-minute recess requirement is a step forward, but in practice it often doesn’t translate into real, usable play time for our kids.
​
I’d love to see LAUSD expand and protect meaningful play time so students have what they need to learn, connect, and regulate.
​
Thank you for your leadership,
[Your Name]
