There are now many well-researched studies that prove beneficial effects of physical activity on: which all leads to improved academic performance, social skills, and self-esteem. Others have looked at physical education in schools and found that the level of physical fitness and time spent in PE are associated with higher academic achievement. Then get your school-aged children into organized sport, exercise at school, walking or riding to and from school, and active play like dancing, swimming, skipping, climbing, jumping, running. Results: Overall, the intervention was not effective in improving the students’ academic performance. The effect that expanded physical undertaking has on academic performance has been examined through some investigations in the past some years. These findings are important as it reveals that being physically healthy is one health asset that can improve, among others, academic achievement in our students.

However, less than 50% of a typical PE lesson is spent in moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), the type of activities that noticeably accelerate the heart rate [30, 31].

The lack of physical activity among our youth puts them at a greater risk of obesity, but it can also effect academic achievement. Get the latest research from NIH: https://www.nih.gov/coronavirus. Public Health 2020, 17, 4287. By giving children the opportunity to be physically active, not only does it improve their academic performance, but it can improve their lives and their future (Snelling et al., 2015). We are collecting PE minutes as an indicator of how much time students are physically active. Results from the study reflected that there are health and immediate risks for children in low income areas and there seems to be a greater need for more positive physical programming to lessen these risk factors. These findings demonstrate how PE, specifically the amount of time spent in PE, may improve academic achievement (in math).

To select our sample, we have decided that we will randomly select 3 high schools from low income areas within each borough in NYC (3 from Brooklyn, 3 from Manhattan, 3 from Staten island, 3 from Queens, and 3 from the Bronx) totaling to 15 schools. This problem has been explained by a great number of students performing poorly on standardized test and not performing at grade level, along with high rates of high school drop outs and special education classification (Ahram, Stembridge, Fergus, & Noguera, 2015). In addition to heavy concerns for health risk, Madsen’s et al. 2012;166:49. doi: 10.1001/archpediatrics.2011.716. Eight recess studies (reported in six articles) explored the relationship between academic performance and recess during the school day in elementary schools.

If this is the outcome of the study, we recommend that policy makers consider increasing time in physical education programing to ensure that students reach their highest potential on standardized tests.
