Climbers intended for school-age children should have a minimum vertical rise (VR) of?

> or = 10"
> or = 12"
> or = 14"
> or = 16"

The correct answer is: > or = 12"

Climbers intended for school-age children should have a minimum vertical rise (VR) of greater than or equal to 12 inches (B) to ensure their safety and enjoyment while using the equipment. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not meet the recommended minimum VR for school-age children. Option A (greater than or equal to 10 inches) may not provide enough challenge for older children, while options C (greater than or equal to 14 inches) and D (greater than or equal to 16 inches) may be too difficult for younger children and could potentially cause accidents or discourage them from using the equipment. It is important to consider the age and abilities of the intended users when choosing the appropriate VR for a climber.
