Physical Education
The objectives of the physical education program are to provide all children with experiences that promote fitness, health, and teamwork. In the lower grades, students are introduced to physical fitness; focused on gross motor skills, listening skills, and following directions; and learning through play and non-competitive games. In the middle grades, emphasis is placed on physical fitness, skill development for competitive team and individual sports, and more competitive games while continuously emphasizing positive sportsmanship. Upper grade level programs are based on physical fitness, sportsmanship, and individualized competitions. The students will participate in Jump Rope for Heart to benefit the American Heart Association as well as Field Day.
