Longer gym class means healthier kids

We need to solve obesity and related health problems. I believe that all the schools in St. Charles District 303 should make physical education mandatory. Physical education class should be 90 minutes per day through senior year of high school. It eventually will affect a student’s physicality, social skills will gradually improve and it will improve them intellectually. Making physical education classes longer, stricter and more effective will only bring good to the health of the community.
