The New Mexico Senate Memorial 1 is “requesting the establishment of a task force to promote the use of outdoor classrooms in New Mexico schools and requesting the governor to declare an ‘outdoor learning day’ in 2021.” Through providing evidence for the benefits of outdoor play for children and their physical, emotional and mental wellbeing, the senate memorial requests that the state uses existing resources to work with state nature departments and programs to create a task force that will develop and recommend actions to establish the use of outdoor classrooms in schools.
