Island Trees High School

Excellence & Success for All Students

Physical Education/Health

The goal of the physical education program is to provide students with a program of training, sports, and exercise which develops physical fitness and coordination, encourages team work and individual proficiency, and prepares students for active participation in athletics and healthful recreation throughout their lives. In addition to this activity program, classroom instruction in health reinforces the importance of healthful living through units on substance abuse (drug, tobacco, and alcohol), mental health, first aid and safety, and family living. In addition, topics such as goal setting, decision making and dealing with stress are presented. These programs meet the requirements of the Commissioner of Education.
