EUSTACE ISD PHYSICAL
ACTIVITY POLICIES
|
Eustace ISD
and each campus are committed to providing a
quality physical education program for all
students. In accordance with Texas
Education Code, §28.002, all students enrolled
in full-day kindergarten or Grades 1-6 in an
elementary school setting participate in a Texas
Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS)-based
physical education class or a TEKS-based
structured activity for a minimum of either 30
minutes daily or 135 |
|
minutes weekly. Middle School students
participate in TEKS-based physical education
classes or athletics throughout the school year.
High school students must earn one and one-half
credits of PE to graduate from high school
(19TAC§74.11). A PE equivalent activity
such as athletics, drill team, or cheerleading
may be counted toward the graduation
requirement. All PE classes regularly
incorporate moderate to vigorous activity. |

How Do I Keep My Family Active?
|
|
Reduce screen viewing hours (TV, videogames,
computer, DVD) |
Substitute one hour of physical activity every day
for one hour of watching
television or playing video
games |
Walk with your child whenever possible. Use
the walk for a purpose - collect
coins found along the route,
clean up trash in the neighborhood or travel
to the store or school |
Plan family activities that provide everyone
exercise. A family that is
physically active together has
lots of fun. |
|
Encourage active playtime in a safe environment |
TOBACCO POLICIES
The district and each campus prohibit
smoking or use of tobacco products in schools, or at
school-related and school sanctioned events (State of Texas,
2001). Students cannot have tobacco products at school and
school personnel are required to enforce the school
district’s tobacco policies.
