Health and Physical Education positively impacts how a person feels physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually

If you still think of Health and Physical Education as “Gym Class,” you are not alone. Many schools are still using the same model introduced in the early 90s. A ball, a whistle, and running around for a period was all that was needed.

But times have changed, and thinking has evolved. More progressive schools have recognized that quality Health and Physical Education programs can provide a gateway to lifelong healthy habits. They understand that with the proper curriculum and resources, young people can develop not just physically, but also mentally, spiritually, and emotionally to set the stage for a better quality of life.
