For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

On the first day back from winter break, a predictable and preventable tragedy struck Perry Middle & High School in the small town of Perry, Iowa. A 17-year-old student, armed with a shotgun and pistol, opened fire in the school before classes began. The attack resulted in the death of a 6th-grader, injuries to four other students and a school administrator, and ended with the shooter taking his own life.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.
