          Fitness Testing


Students are currently participating in fitness testing and the charts below show the 50% and 85% percentile scores of students by age.  You can see how your child did by looking at their scores that they will bring home and comparing it to the chart.  


Students in grades 3,4, and 5 are doing all of the fitness testing as shown below. These give a picture of your child's fitness in endurance, strength, and flexibility. Students in grades 1 and 2 are running 1/4 mile and an optional 1/2 mile and mile.
