Program Design
The physical education program will clearly identify objectives by grade level for appropriate physical activity which will develop fitness and motor skills, knowledge and understanding, appropriate social awareness and behavior, and value of a healthy lifestyle.
The program should provide evidence of its effectiveness through the assessment of specified outcomes at each grade level through the use of appropriate, valid and reliable measurements. |
