During the Covid shutdown, many of our students and athletes lost an entire sports season, and some lost most of the season last year as well. This was devastating on them. For many kids, sports is the driving factor in motivating them to come to school. With many kids, sports are the number one reason why they strive for excellence in the classroom. These items will support Nevada Physical Education Standards 1.2.4 (demonstrate safe practices while participating in physical education). The weight bars, weighted vests, and storage holders for the new bars will provide safety for all students engaged in the activity. 3.5.1 (Participate in a variety of moderate to vigorous physical activity). Using this equipment will assist students in their participation in moderate to vigorous activity. And finally, Nevada standard 3.2.3 (Demonstrate ways to be physically active during the day). For many of our students and athletes, their sports practice is the only physical activity that they experience each and every day. Without practice or games, they would have an increased risk of obesity and heart disease because of the sedentary lifestyle that would result.
