ALBANY, GA -- For today’s Facebook Story of the Day you wanted to know if any local schools are making nay changes to recess. The answer: no.

One parent we talked to, however, said recess should be longer.

“I think it should be made long because the children are not allowed to talk in school so they don't have other ways to redirect their energies that is built up inside of them,” said Lawanda Cook, a parent of three children in Albany schools.
