TK-5 Physical Education at Venetia Valley School!
Physical Education is designed to promote enjoyment of physical activity, self-confidence, physical fitness, improved motor skills and exposure to different physical activities throughout the 200 minutes every ten school days. As in classroom instruction, physical education begins with the unique skills and abilities of each child and systematically develops aerobic fitness, gross motor skills, and sports-based skills. Our goal is to have students develop healthy minds and bodies that incorporate movement into their lives.

Announcements
Your child is being asked to be a part of our school’s California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) sponsored by the California Department of Education. This is a very important survey that will help promote better health and well-being among our youth, improve the school learning environment and combat problems such as drug abuse and violence. Your child does not have to take the survey. If you do not want your child to complete the survey, you must notify your school.
Venetia Valley TK-8's School Accountability Report Card (SARC) for the 2019-20 school year is available for your review. Click the link below to access the SARC in either English or Spanish.
