A bill for an act relating to physical activity requirements applicable to students enrolled in public schools and accredited nonpublic schools.

SF 2006 requires all physically able students in kindergarten through grade five at Iowa public and accredited nonpublic schools to engage in 30 minutes of daily physical activity, separate from physical education classes. The bill specifies that schools cannot prevent this activity unless a student is suspended, absent, poses a safety risk, or circumstances like severe weather or early dismissal occur. Current law allowed physical education to count toward the daily requirement, but this bill explicitly prohibits that. The measure directly affects K-5 students and school districts implementing daily activity plans.
