Adapted Physical Education

The adapted physical education program is designed to provide an appropriate physical education program for exceptional students regardless of physical, mental or emotional disability. The adapted physical education program presents students with the opportunity to improve skills in the areas of body control,object control, and physical fitness through adaptations of regular physical education programs. The students receiving these services are seen individually and in small groups. This programming also includes training students for Special Olympics, exposure to lifetime activities in the community, and an opportunity for social interaction. The adapted physical education curriculum strives to educate students to the enjoyment and benefits of physical activity.
