Lunch Time PLay Program Turns 2!

Did you know that McKinley's one of a kind lunchtime play program is back for it's third year in a row?

The program was started as a collaboration between Principal Rosa Fong, and California Pacific Medical Center, and has been developed by Michael Simpson (Joy of Sports) and Mike Tortorelli (ASEP Health and Wellness Coordinator). It is now most ably directed and facilitated by our wonderful ASEP staff. 
The program was created to provide structure during the lunch-play period, to make the playground a safe and all- inclusive environment, and continue the tradition the Health Champion program had begun. In addition, the program helps to ensure children are meeting their mandatory PE minute requirements and also addresses the concerns of  having sufficient supervision on the playground.
