| I am very excited about the 20011 - 2012 school year! Physical Education is an important part of your child’s educational experience. Physical Eduation allows each student to gain knowledge and skills about healthful living and topics important to their age levels. Physical Education strands that we will focus on for instruction are Movement Forms, Fitness and Sport Literacy, Healthful Lifestyles, Personal Fitness and Appreciation for Diversity. |
