Please make sure your child is prepared for PE in sneakers and comfortable clothes. 

Your child has physical education twice a week for 45 minutes.  During that time your child completes a dynamic stretch routine, warm up game, and works on many different types of activities (for more information click on Unit or Skills to see what your child may be working on).
