Dear Parents,

Welcome to Northview PE! Physical Education is a huge part of the IB MYP Program and is a State of North Carolina requirement for all students. It is also an important factor contributing to the total development of all youth. The physical education program has been designed to provide an environment that will instill in your child the importance of fitness throughout their lifetime. This is accomplished through the instruction of skills. We are looking forward to a productive and fun filled year!
