Should an hour of physical education be required to begin each school day?

Considering the prevalence of obesity among our youth and the overall situation about people’s inactive lifestyles, etc., this is among the first changes I would make if I had the ability. What are our collective thoughts?

The purpose of schools is to educate students, not to keep them in shape. I’ve mentioned it a thousand times, but I really believe it would help with focus and behavior problems, particularly with boys. Particularly in the youngest boys, who arrive in the morning eager to hop over the tables and scale the walls.
