Physical Education

Physical Education Instructor: Coach Cody

Frequency: 2x week, TK/Kinder - 5th Grades, all year

The purpose of the Physical Education Department is to instill the vitally important concepts of an active lifestyle. The program is designed according to state guidelines to enhance a child’s mastering of fundamental movement skills at a young age. This foundation facilitates further motor skill acquisition and provides the students an increased capacity for a lifetime of enjoyable physically active experiences. In fact, the California State Board of Education states “the patterns of physical activity acquired during childhood and adolescence are likely to be maintained throughout one’s life span, providing physical, mental, and social benefits.” To meet the standards set forth by the district, all classes participate in P.E. two times per week. The Kindergartners have 30‐minute sessions while all other grades have 45‐minute sessions.
