Physical Education
The body God has given us is the temple of His Holy Spirit. Therefore, it is important for us to train our children to care for the body they have and to lead healthy, active lives.
Volunteer parents lead P.E. on Monday and Thursday afternoons.
In addition to P.E. activities that develop coordination, cooperation, and fitness, Grace Christian School participates in the President’s Physical Fitness Challenge each year.
The Physical Fitness Test recognizes students for their level of physical fitness in five activities:
♦ Curl-ups (or partial curl-ups)
♦ Shuttle run
♦ Endurance run
♦ Pull-ups (or right angle push-ups or flexed-arm hang)
♦ V-sit reach (or sit and reach)
Completing all five activities is an accomplishment. To celebrate this fitness feat, students will receive one of three awards based on their scores: Participation award, Nationals award, or President’s award.
