My daughter has received the National Physical Fitness Award. This award is given to those students who score at or above the 50th percentile on all five fitness items. The test consisted of measurements in Cardiovascular Endurance (one mile run), Muscular Strength (push-ups or pull-ups), Muscular Endurance (curl ups), Flexibility (sit n reach) and Agility (shuttle run).
She will be receiving a National Certificate from the President, and a National Award Emblem. There are also National fitness Award winner t-shirts available. She was the only child in her class to receive this award! It is her third award in the last 6 months. She won two Positive Actions Awards, one for Personal Success, and another for "being very kind to classmates". She keeps me busy at home, I'm a single parent, and I'm very proud of her, she's the best!
