•  Elementary Physical Education Curriculum
     
    Physical activity is absolutely vital for kids. It prepares children to be physically and mentally active, fit and healthy. It not only develops healthy bones, joints, muscle, fends off obesity, improves academic performance - it also offers opportunities to socialize and learn valuable new skills. Children take their new skills and confidence and use them outside of school ...for life. Physical Education at Ridge Street School is taught by  Mrs. Aruilio & Mr. Forzaglia .
