This fall, all our K-5 Elementary Physical Education students took the Presidential Fitness Test in Gym Class with Coach Fitz. Fitness elements tested were abdominal strength, upper body strength, and cardiorespiratory endurance (sit-ups/planks, push-ups, one-mile run). Lots of pictures to come!
The Presidential Fitness Test provides students with clear, age-appropriate benchmarks that encourage them to build strength, endurance, and healthy habits while striving for personal improvement. Two levels of achievement—Presidential and National—recognize students who meet established fitness benchmarks, while all students who complete the test receive a Certificate of Participation. The tests encourage students to set goals, track progress, and celebrate their accomplishments.
A special thank you goes out to Mr. Clough and my Teacher Academy students (Silas Anderson, Zariah House, Montana Nagy, and Madi Putney) for their assistance in administering the test and recording data for the students. Also, thanks to Mrs. Spoor for all the data entry and score sheets.

Way to go, Bulldogs, for giving your best effort!
