Physical Activity FactsThe percentage of overweight children has more than doubled
since the early 1970s.

Inactive children are more likely to become inactive adults.
The cost of overweight and obesity to the U.S. economy is $117 billion annually in direct and indirect medical costs.

Why Do Children need PE
Physical education is an integral part of the total education of every child in Kindergarten through Grade 12.
Quality physical education programs are needed to increase the physical competence, health-related fitness, self-responsibility and enjoyment of physical activity for all students so that they can be physically active for a lifetime.
Physical education programs can only provide these benefits if they are well-planned and well-implemented.
