HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION
The Health & Physical Education Curriculum has recently been revised and approved by the Millville Board of Education. The Health & Physical Education Curriculum was developed in accordance with the Millville School District policies, as well as the New Jersey Core Content Standards for a Comprehensive Health & Physical Education Program.
In the state of New Jersey, Health & Physical Education is a graduation requirement. Students are required to pass a Health & Physical Education course for every year they are enrolled in high school. At Millville Senior High School, students are permitted to take only one Health & Physical Education course per school year. Students will alternate between their Health class and Physical Education class according to the day of the week. At the end of the semester, each student will have completed forty-five days of both Health and Physical Education.
The Health Curriculum is divided into nine major units The nine major units all students will receive instruction include, Mental & Emotional Health, Nutritional & Consumer Health, Family & Social Health, Community & Environmental Health, Personal Health & Fitness, Growth & Development, Substance Abuse, Diseases & Disorders and Safety & First Aid.. In addition to these units, all sophomores will receive instruction in Driver Education.
The Physical Education Curriculum has a major focus in the areas of fitness and exercise. Students will participate in a variety of units that promotes physical activity throughout a lifetime. These lifelong activities include (but are not limited too) circuit training, resistance training, cardiovascular fitness training, team games and various other lifelong activities (ex. golf & tennis). All Physical Education classes are co-educational and often a cross section of the various grade levels.
Every effort will be made by the physical education staff to have all students participate in the regular program. A student who is medically excused must have a prescribed form signed by their doctor indicating the activities they can do (i.e. walking, weight training, etc.). If the written notification does not allow for any activity, the student will be required to do a three-page report per day on activities assigned by the teacher to receive credit for the course. Failure to comply will result in no credits being issued.
