Mark Schumann, Physical Education Teacher
There are two goals of the Physical Education classes at Red Hawk Elementary:
(1) Get students active for the entire class period
(2) Provide students with a variety of physical activity opportunities so the students have a knowledge base in hopes that they will continue to be physically active throughout their lives.
Students engage in building their muscle strength and endurance, as well as increasing their cardio-respiratory endurance. Also, the students experience many team games and lifetime leisure activities.
Physically active children grow up to be healthier adults. Keep fit & healthy and keep moving.
