About this Event

Coach Townsley's presentation focuses on the question, “Why Physical Education?”. She'll begin by sharing key health statistics that highlight the growing importance of regular physical activity for today’s students. From there, she'll review research that supports the physical, mental, and social benefits of a quality PE program.

Coach Townsley will also explain what Physical Education is—a structured, standards-based program that builds lifelong fitness habits and health knowledge—and what it is not, such as unstructured playtime or simple recreation.
