Where Mind and Body Meet
Apollo Physical Education is a Florida Standards based approach to developing the whole student. We are focused on 4 main areas. First is Movement Competency. If a student can begin to master the basics of movement, that will allow them the try different sports and activities by having a solid base of physical skills. Next is Cognitive Abilities which teaches students about game strategy and ways they can win in a game individually or as a part of a team. Third is Lifetime Fitness. Lifetime fitness enables students to explore physical hobbies or activities that they can carry on with into adulthood. Things that can help relieve stress and provide an outlet for them. Examples would be tennis, disc golf, bicycling , pickle ball and so on. Lastly, Responsible Behaviors and Values. Our aim here is to make productive, empathetic students that exhibit good character and a strong work ethic.
Physical Education at Apollo employs Best Practices based on 25 years of teaching experience.
