North Shore Middle School - C.R.E.W.

C.R.E.W.

The physical education program at North Shore Middle School is C.R.E.W (Cultivating, Recreation, Education, Wellness), taught by Sarah Huffer and Dave Christman. It is broken up into 3 categories. From these 3 categories, students learn the importance of staying physically fit and healthy and ways to improve their overall health and fitness. Each day, students will either have Health, Activity, or Fitness depending on the schedule of their grade. Health is taught in a classroom, where students will learn about their health and ways to stay healthy. They also learn about the dangers of alcohol and drugs. Activity combines fun games like handball, capture the flag, and tukeball, and teaches students the importance of cooperation, respect, delegating responsibilities, and ways to stay active throughout their lives. In Fitness students do activities like yoga, running, and dance and practice these skills to improve flexibility, endurance, strength, and stamina. C.R.E.W. also has many guest appearances. These include visits from personal trainers, professional dancers, dance teachers, and other sports players.
