Physical Education
In Physical Education we have finished our formal Fitness unit where we included a segment of weight training & yoga. They know how to bench press, military press, squats, and several yoga poses including table pose, cow pose & corpse pose.
Our new unit is Over-the-Line, which is a 3-4 softball type game full of base hits and home runs. Great game for providing students with plenty of swings improving hand eye coordination and their potential for the next draft.
California State Fitness testing will continue through the end of March, with make ups in April. Students must pass 5 of the 6 tests in to be considered for waiving Physical Education their 10th, 11th & 12th grade years, along with participation in extracurricular sports. Students must meet with their counselor for more information on waiving PE.
