HS Phys Ed Declining
Only about 26% of U.S. high school students get daily phys. ed. 40% of high school students are not enrolled in gym classes of any kind; for high school seniors the number is a staggering 75%.
Only one state ? Illinois ? requires daily Phys. Ed in high school.
Three states ? Colorado, Mississippi and South Dakota ? have no Phys. Ed. requirement at all.
