Department Overview
Physical education is a vital element in a comprehensive, well-designed educational program.

The exemplary physical education program focuses upon developing in the student the ability to demonstrate good sportsmanship and socially desirable behavior as an individual and as a member of a group; providing each student with the knowledge and opportunity to work towards his or her maximum physiological development; motivating the student to maintain a high level of physical fitness and good health throughout life; improving the student's self-image; and providing knowledge and skills which can be used by the student in worthwhile life-time physical activities.
