***NORTH PRAIRIE PHYSICAL EDUCATION***

“Of all the subjects taught in school, Physical Education is the only subject which, by the very nature of its content, has the potential to affect how a person will feel every moment of every day for the rest of his or her life.”                -Allen Russell-

The North Prairie Physical Education Staff feel that it is important for both students and parents to understand the procedures inherent to a safe and productive Physical Education experience.
