Physical Education Program Summary
The 9-12 Physical Education program at Timothy Christian is first and foremost centered on Christ. Furthermore, the program encourages the students to use their God-given abilities to strive for excellence. Each student is seen as an image bearer of Christ that has the potential to do great things.
As it states in 1 Corinthians 6:20b “Therefore honor God with your body”. The program of Physical Education brings that verse into perspective. Our program is designed to provide students with the knowledge and movement skills needed to engage in health-enhancing physical activity.
Getting students to be active and having them understand the benefits of being active not only now, but later on in life is essential. Safety, game rules, strategies and skill technique are stressed as students participate in a variety of traditional sports or game activities. Also, teambuilding activities require students to utilize life-long skills of problem solving and cooperation. To God be the Glory!
