Welcome!

Welcome to Seabury's Physical Education Web Site! In our physical education classes we take play seriously. It is through play that we learn about ourselves, connect with others, build skills and grow self-confidence. The goals for our physical education program mirror National Standards and goals established by The National Association for Sport and Physical Education: To develop physically educated individuals who have the knowledge, skills and confidence to enjoy a lifetime of healthful physical activity.

Physical Fitness Standards

While physical fitness is an important goal in Seabury's Physical Education Program, it is important to recognize that fitness is not the same for all students. The benchmarks identified in The President's Physical Fitness Challenge allow for those differences. The benchmarks I've referenced represent fitness requirments for President and National Awards which are geared more towards athletes and The Health Fitness Award. They are meant as a reference point for you, not a requirement.Our goal is to grow healthy active kids. The website is: http://www.presidentschallenge.org
