Welcome to the Physical Education Department at TCMS

  •  

    The philosophy of the physical education department at TCMS is to provide students of all abilities with an opportunity to learn and instill three general areas of development.  It is our goal to encourage the physical, mental and social growth of each student in our program.  The staff will present a wide range of activities throughout the year that will teach principals that will help promote lifelong health and wellness.  These activities will be presented in a manner where students will have an opportunity to experience success at their own level.  The focus will be on trust, teamwork, cooperation, communication, and fun.  We believe that, "All students can learn... All students can succeed. "
