Through the physical education department, students are given the opportunity to develop interest in various sports and to understand more fully the necessity of physical fitness. The curriculum of both boys’ and girls’ physical education classes is designed to contribute to the mental, social, and emotional erowth of students, and, there- fore, to contribute to the goals of education. Girls’ physical education and health programs cover many differ- ent activities. Last fall you might have wandered casually through the gymnasium and been confronted with a mass of curious crab- like forms in green gym suits. These were only the girls playing crab soccer — just one of their many activities during the year. Such projects as a night track meet, the Tumbling Club, Physical Education Gym-Night, and Intra-Mural Track Day were sponsored by the boys’ physical education classes in addition to their regular class activities.
