Physical Education offers classes for credit. The credit program is twofold in nature.
There are:
- skill (Tennis and Swimming)
- and physical fitness courses (Power Pilates and Water Fitness)
which award one credit each with students graded on a pass/fail basis.
Instruction is sequential and designed to build the requisite foundation skills, develop and improve performance skills, impart knowledge and concepts relevant to the activity/subject, provide information concerning the fitness and health benefits of regular exercise, help students develop and maintain physical fitness, and enable students to realize why physical activity and proper nutrition can be the cornerstones of well-being and quality of life. These courses also provide opportunities for multi-cultural learning and socialization in a friendly and pleasant environment. All classes are open to men and women.
