- description: The Foods and Physical Activity in Public Elementary Schools, 2005 (FRSS 87), is a study that is part of the
Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) program; program data is available since 1998-99 at <https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/downloads.asp>.
FRSS 87 (https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/) is a sample survey that was designed to obtain current national information on
availability of foods and opportunities for exercise in public elementary schools. Questionnaires were mailed to the principals
of each sampled school. Respondents had the option of completing paper-and-pencil or web-based questionnaires. The study's
weighted response rate was 91 percent. Key statistics produced from the study were types of food sold at one or more locations
in their schools and in their cafeterias or lunchrooms; the types of food sold at vending machines and school stores or snack
bars, and times when foods were available at those locations; food service operations and contracts with companies to sell
foods at schools; scheduled recess, including the days per week, times per day, and minutes per day of recess; scheduled physical
education, including the days per week, class length, and average minutes per week of physical education; activities to encourage
physical activity among elementary students; and the physical assessment of students.; abstract: The Foods and Physical Activity
