PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Physical education is an integral component of total Catholic education. To lead a productive life, students must be physically fit and understand the importance of maintaining physical fitness. Students develop skills and behaviors that enable them to participate in co-operative games, learn to practice socially acceptable behaviors, and respect diversity. Physical activities offer an opportunity for students to attain success and self-esteem in a positive manner. Students learn sportsmanship, work ethic, the importance of healthy living and the ability to learn from mistakes.  Effort and conduct are the cornerstones of grading. 

Through Physical Education a student can appreciate that sound development of the mind and body are ways of becoming a happy fulfilled child of God. During PE students are encouraged to "do your best", have a positive mental attitude and practice good sportsmanship.

“The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand. ” — Vince Lombardi
