Review for Playworks, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was fortunate enough to see this amazing program in action for 2 years in Oakland in 2002. The staff and program changed the dynamic of the elementary school and the lives of the students. The students were eager for recess and learned lifelong conflict resolution skills.
Recess is often a time when students engage in negative behavior and this transfers throughout the rest of their school day. This can have a very powerful impact on their academic achievement.
I only wish Playworks was in the current school that I work in-we could really use their help!

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Only continue to grow and expand, while keeping the core principals in place.
