Adaptive Physical Education

Adaptive Physical Education is a diversified program for students whose physical limitations restrict their participation in the vigorous activities of the general physical education program. This program presents the students with developmental activities, sports, games, and rhythms suited to the interest and capabilities of each individual student. Identification and assignment of students for this program is done through the combined effort of the program instructor, school nurse, guidance counselor, building principal, and physician’s recommendation.
