Recess PASSES

 Mullaney is arguing that principals' discretion is not included around weather...though now it seems to be around more than that, including whether to have recess at all.
Now O'Connell is back to the waiver, which was around putting together a draft policy.
Boone's concern with the waiver: that principals might think they have to seek prior permission if they are not keeping kids inside.
Boone's doing a sort of summary...
The mayor asks if the term "weather permitting" gives enough discretion to principals in the view of the superintendent.
Monfredo likes the word "preferred."
Mullaney asks that we give...I'm not sure, honestly.


Foley amends it to "outside weather permitting, or in other circumstances for a short period of time..."
PASSES 7-0 at 30 minutes
