They implemented this a few years after I graduated. Although at my school I think you only had to take one semester of PE rather than two if you did an organized sport.Devils Advocate wrote: I believe that you no longer have to take PE in Ohio if you are in an organized sport, Marching band or ROTC![]()
That's gotta be relatively recent if that's the case. I can understand not having to take it if you're in ROTC, but I certainly had to take it when I was in band. The difference was that I could take it over the summer in my first two years of high school. IIRC, you only needed two semester's worth.Devils Advocate wrote: I believe that you no longer have to take PE in Ohio if you are in an organized sport, Marching band or ROTC![]()
When you are likely lifting weights/running before school and having organzied practice/conditioning after school I think PE is pretty useless. All the athletes when I was in high school did nothing in PE unless dodgeball was on the agenda.Devils Advocate wrote: I believe that you no longer have to take PE in Ohio if you are in an organized sport, Marching band or ROTC![]()
