Mr. Hermann and Mrs. Altamirano teach most of the Jr High and High School PE courses. They focus on overall fitness and daily healthy habits. Distance Learning PE is as close to in person PE as they can make it with running in place, stretches, pushups, sit ups. The students log their time outside of class and have self -reflections on their progress. In this course students are expected to pass the California PE Standards. Students will also be tested in the state mandated Fitness gram Test, including flexibility, upper body strength, curl ups, aerobic capacity and body mass index. Additionally, students will participate in Football, Volleyball, Soccer, Lacrosse, Badminton, Basketball, Pickle Ball, Dance, and Softball.
Dan McDonald teaches some PE courses, but is charge of Weight Training courses. WJSHS has a newly built weight room with new equipment and a wonderful sound system. Coach Mac helps students to understand the different muscles groups in their bodies and how to work out properly. This is a course designed to educate people on how to train with free weights, their body weight, and leverage weight. The class explains how to get results through specific training regimes. Basic nutritional guidelines are also covered.
Students interested in extending their PE can join various sports at WJSHS. We offer football, cheer leading, soccer, golf, volleyball, wrestling, basketball, track and cross country.
Running club helps students who are interested in improving their times and overall fitness.
