"Our Mission at LPHS develops inquiring, open-minded, and caring young people who are motivated to succeed. Guided by the International Baccalaureate® (IB) approach, our inquiry-based curriculum encourages collaboration and real-world connections. Students drive their own learning, building the confidence, empathy, and knowledge to excel in college and beyond" (Lincoln Park High School, 2020).
The Center of Disease Control recommends children and adolescents ages 6 to 17 years do 60 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous physical activity daily (CDC, 2020). As your teacher, my goal is to educate LPHS students using Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) Standards and the Society of Health and Physical Educators (SHAPE) Standards to create an age appropriate curriculum designed to encourage life long learning.
