Health and Physical Education

Students are required to take Health, Physical Education 1, and Physical Education 2. The Health curriculum includes the study of mental, physical, and social health issues and provides students with the ability to recognize, correct, and maintain a healthy lifestyle. The Physical Education program is designed to provide opportunities for students to develop physical fitness and efficient use of the body in all activities, as well as develop skills in activities which will provide for personal enjoyment and worthy use of leisure time. Some Physical Education activities take place outside of school and involve a minimum cost to students. However, a student may be excused from these activities.

The following clothing is required to ensure safety and complete movement during activity: T-shirt and shorts or sweatpants, as well as tennis shoes and socks. Warm-up outfits, sweatsuits, and sweatshirts are always accepted; a uniform may be required. Students should also have a good combination lock.
