The Physical Education program is a compilation of lifetime sport and movement activities designed to instill a belief in the value of physical activity. Our intent is to expose students to a large variety of activities and have them develop basic knowledge and skills, thereby promoting participation in them during their lives after high school. A variety of lifetime, team, and individual activity units are offered throughout the course of the school year of which students will participate. The Physical Education staff feels that a student who completes their high school Physical Education requirement to graduate will have experienced a very well rounded program and thus, have a solid base from which to pursue a healthy, active lifestyle. 

Students will: 

● Understand what is necessary to maintain a physically active lifestyle

● Participate in activities that focus on lifetime physical fitness

● Cooperate in class so all students learn and participate in a healthy and safe environment

● Understand and be able to manage their personal and community resources
