Bill > S06194

This bill amends the education law to require instruction in physical education for all students enrolled in elementary and secondary schools in cities with a population of one million or more. The bill mandates that this physical education instruction, where feasible, must include daily physical education for a minimum of 150 minutes per school week, and it applies to students with disabling conditions and those in alternative education programs. The bill also directs the Board of Regents to provide a two-year phase-in schedule for implementing daily physical education in elementary schools by July 1, 2026.
