Setting goals for success! Our 4th and 5th grade students recently took part in a PE goal-setting activity, where they created their own S.M.A.R.T. (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Timely) goals focused on physical activity and health. From improving endurance to mastering new skills, our students are thinking ahead and taking steps toward a healthier future!
