Secondary Physical Education

What are your memories of your Middle/High School physical education classes?

--  Meaningful?

--  Inspiring?

--  Fitness and game oriented?

--  Preparation for healthy life skills?

 

                                      OR

 

--  "Roll out the ball" while I work on my coaching duties?

--  Coaches focusing on only the athletes?

--  A former coach "hanging on to his/her job until retirement?

--  A teacher who has lost the passion for teaching?

--  A teacher who doesn't seem to care who dresses out and participates?

 

At JSU, we are aware of "real life" secondary physical education.  It is our passion and ission to instill quality physical education curriculum into our students so THEY can be the "change agents" and teach children healthy, active lifestyles that will stay with them and quite possibly save their lives.

 

Hopefully, with each life changing experience throughout their careers—good or bad--JSU students will be given the strong foundation and support system that allows them will grow as an individuals and professionals thus becoming a more efficient and effective physical education teacher.  With this knowledge, understanding, and compassion, we are confident that  JSU students will be the leaders of the quality P.E. programs of the future.
