Physical Education and Sports for All Students

It’s mind-boggling that at a time when overweight and obesity levels are up among our young people and physical activity levels are down, our schools are cutting physical education classes and intramural sports programs. Pressures driven by the No Child Left Behind legislation have led to cutbacks in physical education despite research that shows students receiving daily physical education are not only healthier but perform better academically. We need a concerted effort to increase quality fitness-based daily physical education classes, along with a return to the vibrant intramural sports programs our schools once offered.
