Physical Education of the Coordinated School Health Model
Coordinated School Health Model
Texas school districts offer a planned, sequential K-12 curriculum that provides cognitive content and learning experiences in a variety of activity areas such as basic movement skills; physical fitness; rhythms and dance; games; team, dual, and individual sports; tumbling and gymnastics; and aquatics. Quality physical education should promote, through a variety of planned physical activities, each student's optimum physical, mental, emotional, and social development and activities that all students enjoy.
- Texas Fitness Now was a grant program aimed at middle school students attending schools where enrollment is at least 60 percent economically disadvantaged to fight childhood obesity.
