FITNESSGRAM
FitnessGram evaluates all students regardless of age, gender, or ability. Students are encouraged to be self-aware of health-related fitness and take responsibility by setting personal fitness goals. When students focus on the process of doing their personal best, a more positive lifelong impact is achieved.
You may request a copy of your child’s physical fitness assessment by contacting the physical education teacher and/or principal.By providing you and your child with this health-related fitness information, you can lead your child toward a healthy lifestyle. A healthy student is better prepared to learn and perform in all aspects of life. Klein ISD currently provides a report for each student tested. The results are sent home in a sealed envelope once the testing is completed.
