OVERVIEW
The physical Education program is designed to promote growth and well being
for the children. Physical fitness and a variety of motor skills are the
main focus of the program. The goal of our physical fitness component is to
enhance the physical performance and body composition of the indiviual
child. Motor skills development is emphasized in the primary grades and
progresses to more sports specific skills in the upper grades.
Throughout the entire grade levels the PE program looks to instill the
values of sportsmanship, respect, cooperation and leadership while using
physical activity as a vehicle for learning. Prayer is reinforced every
class period to bring the spirit of Christ to our lessons.
Lastly, through positive experiences, positive reinforcement and constructive
criticism life long learning in physical Education can take place.
