PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Physical Education is often one of the junior high classes that incoming students worry the most about, with questions like, “Will I have to take a shower in front of other kids?” (NO) and “What if I forget my locker combination?” (We have a backup key) We are happy to put students at ease and take pride in making P.E. fun!

Instruction is given in basic skills and techniques of fitness, team and individual sports activities. The general aim of the class is to increase group awareness, sportsmanship, muscular strength, coordination, physical fitness and basic movement.
