Fitness and Fun

We have been busy finishing up with our fall fitness testing for our students in grades 2-5.  The fitness tests are a separate portion of the report card and consist of a PACER running endurance test, push-ups, curl-ups and a sit and reach flexibility test.  We also keep track of these scores for each student's fitness report that is sent home in the spring.  Students will go through all of these same tests again in the spring so you will have some data to compare.  Each grade level is busy working on different activities, some of which include volleyball, over and underhand throwing, whole class fitness games and locomotor activities.  Please reach out to us if you have any questions after first trimester report cards come home.
