Physical Education

Governor’s Council position:

Quality physical education is a key component in healthy lifestyles for children.

The Governor’s Council envisions a population with the knowledge, skills, competence and confidence to pursue physical activity in daily life.  We must ensure daily, quality physical education in all school grades.

We encourage all Michigan citizens to make their voices heard.  If you would like to contact your legislator about advocating for quality physical education in our schools, you may find their contact information at the links below.
