   Fundamental activities such as running, jumping, skipping, sliding, catching, kicking, and striking are the basic components of the games, sports, and dance of our society. Children who possess inadequate motor skills are often relegated to a life of exclusion from the organized and free play experiences of inactivity because of their frustrations in early movement behavior. (Vern Seefelt, John Haubenstricker, Sam Reuschlein)

   At Overbrook School we realize that becoming Physically Educated is a developmental process that begins in early childhood and continues throughout life. The physical education program involves the total child and includes physical, mental, social, and emotional growth experiences. The physical education program provides instruction that will enable the pursuit of physical fitness and a lifetime of physical activity.
