Physical Education

40 weeks, one-half credit

The Physical Education program is an important part of the total growth and development process of each student. Our program requires our students to meet twice a week all year. All students receive grades based on attendance, attitude, effort, knowledge of sports, lifetime leisure activities and health-related fitness, physical ability, and interaction with others (sportsmanship, self-control, etc.).

We include some modified team sports, lifetime sports, individual sports, and health-related fitness activities as part of our curriculum. All students must be prepared for each class with Physical Education clothes (shorts, shirt, sneakers, and socks) different from what they wore to school. Our students receive a meaningful and successful educational program that meets the individual needs of each student, as well as the state and national standards.
