Physical and Health Education 8/9/10 has been developed so that the same course can be taken by students in Grades 8, 9, or 10. It can also be taken more than once with different activities being done in each grade. The purpose of this course is to encourage regular, enjoyable physical activity that contributes to a healthy body and mind. Students plan their own program and choose their own activities, which might range from something as simple as walking the dog to participation in team sports. In addition to the physical activity program, there are written activities and readings about the active lifestyle.
