Physical Education (PE)

The Physical Education Teachers believe that physical education programs should be an integral part of every student’s program in the Plano Independent School District. We also believe that when a child feels good about his physical development and has a good self-concept, then he will be more inclined to perform better in the classroom and all other phases of life. An adequate physical education program should include a variety of activities that provide the student with skills and abilities that will have a lasting effect.

The program should also be designed to motivate students by providing activities at all levels in which students can experience success. It is our belief that the program should be continuous in nature so that students will be involved in activities built in increasing stages of difficulty.

Fundamental to every student’s development is the ability to become physically fit, develop motor skills, gain knowledge and understanding, develop appropriate social awareness and behavior, and achieve life-time physical well-being.
