i am a is an education teacher at lincoln high school. i have been there for over 10 years, and i think clinton has one of the best physical education and jrotc programs. i teach physical education because i think it is important. i think exercise is the best way to stay alert and healthy. our kids involved motor skills, learn how to be fit, and learn how to make it part of their daily lives. two years ago, they stopped giving credit fort pierce it bothers me that the district gave. instructors two years to get their teaching credentials, and not one of them did, and now, you want to give them another two years. what kind of standard is that? is this being allowed because this is only the physical education? it makes me worry about what is next. are we going to let anyone who wants to take physical education and do it because it works better for their program? i feel and hope that you will agree with me that after giving pe independent programs, it does not work. this should remain an elective with no physical education credits allowed. t
