All of our 5th grade students will participate in FITNESSGRAM this year. This will test the components of Health Related fitness. This test will cover muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, cardiorespiratory endurance and body composition.
Students shall be tested in an effort to meet State Goal 20, where students achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness. Based upon continual self-assessment, fitness testing can help students identify their fitness levels and set goals for improvement. Gathering this data also enables parents and schools to better understand the health trends within their region and encourage enhancements in a school's physical education program.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
