Philosophy:

The Physical Education program at Providence High School is designed to provide a positive learning experience for everyone. The focus will be placed on physical fitness, skill development in various individual and team sports and most importantly, active participation while having a safe and orderly environment. Physical education provides a number of important benefits that improve one's overall physical and mental health as well as teaches sportsmanship, cooperation and team play. To enhance the effectiveness of our Physical Education program, all students must follow a few simple guidelines.
