The mission of the Immaculate Conception School is to provide an environment that promotes self-respect and the respect of others. The physical education program provides a place where students are encouraged to work to their best ability, to respect their peers, and to work in a cooperative way that highlights the moral and ethical values that their christian education provides. As students develop an appreciation of physical fitness, sports, and games, they are able to develop and refine God-given talents with which they have been blessed or upon which they need to work.

In preparing curriculum, the physical education teacher recognizes and acknowledges each student's age, ability, and limitations. Efforts are made to promote teamwork and school spirit from an early age. Students learn to recognize and appreciate their teammates, celebrate each other's successes, and offer positive reinforcement.

Many children benefit from a kinesthetic approach to learning: they learn best when practicing or learning a modeled behavior. Students are provided with opportunitites to experience various aspects of physical activity: sports, physical fitness, strength training, conditioning, physical games, and health-related activites.
