Cove PE & Fitness
Mr. Huff and Mr. Linforth value fairness and kindness and are building a community of engaged participants. When students feel comfortable and safe (physically and emotionally) they are much more likely to participate athletically. We stress effort and attitude foremost. The result is a student who values a healthy lifestyle and knows the benefits of active participation in lifelong athletic activities.
The PE/Fitness curriculum is a blend of a sports based model with a state of the art Fitness Center. This is a tremendous combination and allows our students the opportunity to grow their teamwork and interpersonal skills in so many ways. Safety is, and will always be, our top priority. We are continually introducing more fitness elements that are safe and socially responsible while in our school setting. Ask your student what was the workout element during their day and bring that energy into your home! It is so important for our students to see an engaged and active role model in their lives. We are continually teaching that fitness is a social activity and that the joy of participation will equip our students with the right mindset towards having fitness be a lasting part of their lives.
