Standards for K-12 Physical Education

Standards for K-12 Physical Education define the essential knowledge and skills that students should acquire in physical education classes from kindergarten through 12th grade. These standards aim to promote physical fitness, motor skills, teamwork, and an understanding of health and wellness. They provide a framework for educators to design lessons that encourage lifelong physical activity and healthy habits. By meeting these standards, students learn not only how to participate in various sports and activities but also the importance of fitness in overall well-being.
