Welcome to Chardon School's Elementary Physical Education Program! I am excited to tell you of changes to physical education in Ohio beginning this school year! Standard 1. Demonstrates competency in motor skills and movement patterns needed to perform a variety of physical activities. Standard 2. Demonstrates understanding of movement concepts, principles, strategies and tactics as they apply to the learning and performance of physical activities. Standard 3. Participates regularly in physical activity. Standard 4. Achieves and maintains a health-enhancing level of physical fitness. Standard 5. Exhibits responsible personal behavior and social behavior that respects self and others in physical activity settings. Standard 6. Values physical activity for health, enjoyment, challenge, self-expression and/or social interaction. Thank you for your involvement in helping your child become physically educated!New Evaluation of PE State Standards
The standards are:
Beginning in the 2012-2013 school year, a physical education evaluation will be included as an indicator on the Local Report Card. Senate Bill 210 (SB 210), which was signed into law in June 2010, includes four components that will make up a report card indicator. The goal of this legislation is to ensure consistency of teaching and learning outcomes in public school physical education.
As required by SB 210, all schools in the Chardon Local School District will measure student success in meeting the benchmarks contained in the Physical Education Academic Content Standards. The tasks contained in the evaluation instrument are designed to be incorporated within the curriculum and physical education lessons. Full details of this evaluation can be found at the following link:

In 2007 Ohio adopted the six academic content standards of the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE). The goal of these standards is to define a physically educated person, help teachers design a comprehensive physical education program for their students, and to identify important learning outcomes at particular grade levels.
