[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a very valid question, and frankly don't see the purpose of PE in high school, especially for those who are getting exercise outside of school. For those not exercising outside of school, they probably are not participating much in PE anyhow. Most of the time, it's either health class, or sitting around getting yelled at because kids are misbehaving. The intention of PE class is wonderful, the results unfortunately do not provide much benefit. This is through no fault of the teachers, they do the best they can with the curriculum, requirements and attitudes of students they are required to corral. I feel that PE is different than other subjects and should not be forced in high school. Music and art are not required past elementary school. Students should have a choice of elective. Some private schools do not require PE in high school. [/quote] Don't they also get the health class during PE? Drivers' Education?[/quote]
