Sports and P.E.

By: Iris Farley and Paige Perkins

Step 1: Thoughts/Ideas
Peers struggle to fit P.E. into their
schedule
The realization that many juniors have no
P.E. credits
The struggle to do the mile and sports in
the same day
Step 2: Opinions of Faculty
Talked to Todd Powers (athletic director)
Talked to Scott Blood (Coach and has a
degree in physical education)
Talked to Steve Peck (Varsity girls former
soccer coach)
Talked to Janet Gay

Todd spoke about online P.E. and sent us
