At the Gilmore, Play...Works!

The Huntington School adopted PLAYWORKS Recess in 2013. This provides an organized approach to recess with the philosophy that the “power of play will bring out the best in every kid. PLAYWORKS creates a place for every kid on the playground – a place where every kid belongs, has fun and is part of the game. It doesn’t matter if they have never even played the game before. At the Huntington we ensure that all children have a place that is safe and welcoming, where they can play and thrice, belong and contribute. The goal is that every child takes this positive experience back to the classroom, back to learning, and back to their community.”
