Physical Education is also emphasized with short sessions of jogging, stretching, rhythm, and resistance exercises as a part of each day’s activities. The goal of Physical Education is to provide each student with the knowledge and desire to pursue fitness throughout life.

This includes: (1) assessing their personal fitness levels; (2) creating a plan for improvement; (3) setting physical activity and fitness goals; (4) participating in a variety of physical activities (e.g. weight training, aerobics, individual and team sports, and outdoor pursuits); and (5) using current technology, (e.g. activity trackers, heart rate monitors, pedometers, and computerized fitness assessment programs).
