Many schools today are sacrificing social studies, the arts and physical education so children can cover basic subjects like math, English and science.

The subjects are math, phonics, language arts, science, art, music and physical education, and history instead of social studies, which I really like.

An extended school day gives administrators the ability to ensure children get a well-rounded education.

The arts, sciences, humanities, physical education, languages and maths all have equal and central contributions to make to a student's education.

The PHYSICAL Act gives our schools the flexibility they need to give physical education the attention it deserves in promoting our children's well-being.

I got involved in athletics during physical education lessons at school.
