We want everyone to experience what a real rock star recess is every day: play time at school that is inviting, where friends resolve conflicts peacefully, where kids get a chance to move and groove, and where everyone gets a chance to play.

Disney’s Forever in Your Mind helped kick off this Playworks initiative with a Rock Star Recess Concert at Foster Elementary School in Compton, California.  Along with tennis star Sloane Stephens, FIYM’s Liam Attridge, Ricky Garcia, and Emery Kelly participated in various recess games with the students of Foster Elementary.  Watch FIYM’s announcement of Playworks’ Rock Star Recess initiative.
