DCSS Health and Physical Education
Stephenson Middle School
"Physical Education is fitness for life"
At Stephenson Middle... We're "SHAPING" the world
with healthy individuals."
Mission
The purpose of the health and physical education program is to contribute to each student's growth and development in the physical, cognitive, and social domains through a movement-based curriculum. This involves delivery of a planned, sequential K-12 curriculum.
Vision
All students will be physically educated, having acquired motor skills to perform a variety of physical activities, physical fitness knowledge, and intrinsic motivation to pursue a healthy and active lifestyle in an increasingly changing society.
Philosophy
Health and physical education are important and unique parts of the daily instructional program. Not only do they contribute to the overall goals of education, but they also contribute to the development and maintenance of health related fitness, motor skills, and social skills. Quality instruction in health and physical education involves the "whole child" by providing psychomotor, cognitive, and affective benefits.
