Fitness Testing:

• Each semester, students will participate in fitness testing. This data helps build our daily PE lessons and objectives to ensure our students gain knowledge and learn about goal setting while working to improve the 5 main fitness components: aerobic endurance, muscular endurance, muscular strength, body composition, and flexibility.

• All test times/numbers are recorded and used for baseline data and future tests (goal setting).
