In elementary and middle school PE is taught each year, with no time requirements. In high school, one year is required. One credit is required for graduation. To waive any part of the graduation credit, a district must make a request of the State Board of Education. As part of statewide educational reform efforts, health and PE are considered essential parts of learning.
PE is mandated by the state.
Grades 1-8 average 20 minutes a day. Two credits are required for graduation. Substitutions are allowed.
