Yes, I have to admit that this school disctirct is very well versed on health... whether it be through exercise, diet, or education. They have actually received two federal grants for their physical education programs. It is incredible what they have to offer for the students and the community. Not only did they build small gyms, but in their physical education program they also offer kayaking, canoeing, xc skiing, snowshoes, mtn biking, hiking, along with the normal core of classes. OOPS! they also have climbing walls. and of course, they offer spin classes along with some other types of classes available through their gym. Their focus seems to be adding incentive for lifetime sports... which is awesome. We live in a beautiful area that is prime for these sports , and a great way to encourage people of all ages to get outside and move.

This same school district became the first school in the state of Maine to offer a skateboard class. Although it's a fairly small school, it does indeed offer a very wide selection of PE courses.

The middle school in my town has a cadre of mountain bikes, too. And some three wheeled bikes for kids who need them.
