LEXINGTON'S PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASSES - " Where Learning is Fun"
" I am so excited to have your child in my PE classes. Together we can make a difference in the health of your child. My goal is to educate our students to the importance of lifetime activities that promote their fitness and health, while developing positive attitudes and behaviors towards physical education. Families and schools are the two critical links in providing the foundation of those behaviors. On that note, it is my request that parents get involved with helping thier children make better choices at home. Parents are the best role models, showing children how to become more active and make healthy food choices."
