PRESIDENT'S PHYSICAL FITNESS PROGRAM
At Hayesville Middle School we work each day on helping our children achieve the standards of passing the physical fitness challenge. In order to pass, the children must meet or exceed the standards in all 5 areas of physical fitness. We test twice during the year. Once in the fall after the students have had time to practice and then at the end of the year.
  • These tests include:
  • Curl-Ups
  • Shuttle Run
  • Sit & Reach
  • One Mile Run
  • Pull-Ups
