Physical Education: Building a Healthier Future
At Southwest Preparatory School, we are dedicated to fostering lifelong wellness through our Health and Physical Education program. This program is designed not just to improve physical fitness, but to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed for a healthy, active life.
Our Health and Physical Education classes focus on enhancing physical competence, health-related fitness, and self-responsibility while promoting the enjoyment of physical activities. By offering diverse activities and structured lessons, we aim to create an environment where students develop the habits that can lead to a lifetime of wellness.
