Physical Education
Balboa implements the North Valley YMCA PLAY (Physical Learning Activities for Youth) Program. PLAY experts deliver this high-quality, research-based health and wellness curriculum to our students daily, which is designed to prevent childhood obesity and diabetes. The lessons are aligned with the California Physical Education Content Standards, and the activities and games are developmentally appropriate. Safety and teamwork are two important concepts that are incorporated into the learning structure. The activities help to develop students' physical skills and fitness level while teaching sportsmanship, cooperation, and healthy competition. Coach Miguel Corona leads the PE classes at Balboa.
