PHILOSOPHY

We believe in educating the whole person. This includes the mental, social, emotional, AND PHYSICAL pieces that contribute to the overall development and well-being of every person. Physical education provides this unique opportunity through a wide variety of experiences and activities. It is our job to provide current, quality physical education, based on state and national standards to allow students a sense of success and accomplishment. Students will also improve motor skills, movement patterns, fitness component awareness and concepts, and learn how to be responsible for their fitness. We believe "Everyone succeeds at fitness," and we strive to live by example to our students. Together, we can all take fitness, "One step at a time."

PARENTS: YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO COME TO WATCH YOUR STUDENT PARTICIPATE IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION. PLEASE CHECK IN WITH THE FRONT OFFICE FOR A VISITOR'S PASS.
