Greetings!

Our policy at the high school is that students are required to take pe/health 9th-11th grade. As seniors, if they choose to, students can take an elective course - Personal Fitness. Opting out is not an option. The idea of opting out of pe for athletes is not a great idea simply because they are not getting the activity and socialization with ALL of their peers as they should. They are only exercising sport specific muscles and learning about sport specific concepts. Therefore, it is only hindering them from becoming a well rounded, whole athlete.
