To Lead Lives that are Physically, Emotionally, and Socially Healthy
As students’ bodies begin to develop and mature throughout middle and high school, it is imperative for them to learn about the importance of being active and healthy, and what is required of them to do so.
Health and Physical Education classes play an integral part in providing students with the strong foundation they need to lead lives that are physically, emotionally, and socially healthy.
Students who follow this foundation are better able to concentrate and maintain focus, which has a positive impact on their schoolwork in the classroom.
Through Health and Physical Education, students build the essential skills to think, learn, solve problems, and make informed decisions about their health.
