Helping to Keep Us All Healthy The physical education program has as its goal the personal and group attainment of knowledge, skills, and attitudes which contrib- ute toward active, healthy, and safe behavior and fruitful lives. K-6: The primary program pro- vides for the development of basic movement and body management skills, coordination skills, self-ex- pression, and verbal communica- tion. The intermediate program provides opportunities for pupils to develop a higher degree of profi- ciency in basic movement and to synthesize these basic skills into complex situations in games, fit- ness, gymnastics, aquatics, rhythms and dance, and a variety of sports. 7-12: The secondary program pro- vides more complex basic move- ment and body management oppor- tunities than those offered in the elementary schools. The program is diversified and offers a wide range of activities. Increasingly, the em- phasis is on lifetime sports, lifetime fitness, leisure time, and adventure sports activities.

Barrett I Whalen The secondary health course is designed to import health information to students which will enable them to live a more healthful, satis- fying life in their future. The emphasis is on mental health and personality development with specific units on physical health, sociologi- cal health problems, community and environ- mental health and education for survival. This year the Frontier district implemented a pilot project for the K-3 level entitled Primary Grades Health Curriculum - Growing Healthy. This program will provide highly or- ganized, comprehensive, sequential program of health education that integrates completely with the basic curriculum. Students will gain a better understanding of their senses, bodies, and good health practicesg develop a positive health attitude towards themselves and their commu- nityg and be able to make informed decisions about personal health practices. The district will consider adopting the curriculum within the near future for levels 4-7 td provide further continuity of the total health program. Z2fHealth 8: Phys. Ed. H J N Crawford
