| The physical education and
health program at Annunciation Orthodox School
is a unique fitness based program. The purpose
of the PE program at AOS is to provide appropriate
instruction for the acquisition of behaviors
that contribute to a healthy lifestyle. We achieve
this through a program that reflects the needs
of each student throughout the school years.
The AOS program delivers the following benefits
for all students:
| |
• desirable social behaviors
and increased levels of self image,
• establishment of the positive behaviors
that promote higher levels of health,
• development of appropriate levels
of personal fitness and an understanding
of the importance of physical
activity for maintaining a viable and productive
life,
• better health-educated
individuals, equipped to handle personal
and social, environmental and
safety decisions, and
• the development
of appropriate skills and behaviors that
will enable students to be proficient
in at least three lifetime activities. |
The AOS physical education
philosophy is centered on three basic assumptions
that exercise and fitness are: for a lifetime,
for fun and pleasure, and for all people. |
