District
41 Physical Education is a fitness based program. This approach to
Physical Education gives students an understanding of how to live a
healthy, active lifestyle. We emphasize three components of fitness:
Cardio/respiratory fitness, Muscular Strength and Endurance, and
Flexibility. We strive to help students understand how these components
relate to their everyday activities and how to improve in these areas
of fitness. Our goal is that students will be able to recognize these
components of fitness in each activity they participate in and hope that
one day they will be able to create their own fitness plan,
incorporating all the components of fitness.
