STAFF WELLNESS | 4J Physical Education and Fitness Instruction Our Mission: With the help of the Carol M. White Grant the Eugene School District 4J Physical Education staff will continue to move our students towards the goal of health and fitness for a lifetime. A major part of this grant will focus on introducing our physical education staff to “functional fitness.” Functional Fitness is the strength and agility needed to function effectively in the real world. To meet this goal, staff members recognize important remaining needs: a comprehensive functional-fitness-based elementary curriculum; training for physical education teachers targeting activities that improve functional fitness; more attractive life-long fitness opportunities at the secondary level; and standards-based activities in the after-school programs in the highest poverty schools to increase fitness and provide moderate to vigorous exercise.
