Description
The Physical Education major prepares students to become leaders in the classroom! The unique four-year degree program provides students with the skills to become certified teachers in grades preK-12. Students will gain the skills to teach individuals or groups of elementary, middle, or high school students about healthy lifestyle behavior, as well as a variety of physical activities (fitness, gymnastics, rhythms and dance, sports and game skills). With a focus on hands-on learning, students will take the skills they learn in the classroom as they work with children from local schools.
