Physical Education
The fundamental goal of the physical education program is to prepare students for the challenges of the 21st century by providing opportunities to attain the skills and knowledge to be physically active as part of a healthy lifestyle. Students should become competent in movement forms, motor skills, and social skills and learn to enjoy physical activity while not compromising safety. Secondary level physical education provides enjoyment, challenge, social opportunities and a greater opportunity for self-expression and personal meaning.
As a result of these benefits of physical activity, students will begin to actively pursue lifelong physical activities that meet their own needs. Additionally, the role of physical activity on physiological, social, and emotional well-being as well as a comprehensive perspective on the meaning of a healthy lifestyle will be clearly understood.
