serious about developing their leadership skills both in Physical Education
and in community activities.
General Goals
The general goals of the program are to have the participating students:
Enjoy and appreciate the short and long term benefits of involvement in
regular physical activity;
Develop an understanding and appreciation of physical fitness;
Increase knowledge, skill level and leadership in a variety of physical
activities with emphasis on lifetime skills; and
Provide an opportunity for social growth and interaction in a variety of
activity related settings.
Activity Units
The program is divided into a number of activity units ranging from team
sports to individual activities depending upon the limitations of staff and
facilities. The following are some of the activities that may be offered:
Evaluation
In evaluating each student, the physical education staff will be placing an
emphasis on personal improvement and on participation rather than on a high
level of skill development. This process will allow each student to
participate in each activity at the skill level that is appropriate.
