In order inform efforts to implement 60 minutes of daily physical education/physical activity in a district constrained by space and budgets, CPS-Office of School Health and Wellness developed a pilot wherein schools offered 30 minutes of PE, 20 minutes of recess and 10 minutes of integrated physical activity daily (30+20+10). In year two of implementation, CPS-OSHW has developed guidance for schools based on best practices and lessons learned from the first year of the pilot.
