Rollerskating is Coming to Quest Academy!
We are excited to announce that Quest Academy has teamed up with Skatetime School Programs® to bring an exciting and innovative Physical Education program to its students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade. Starting on February 15, 2017 students will learn basic skating skills during regular gym class right on the gym floor. This skating unit is being implemented because of its emphasis as a “Lifetime Activity”. Skating provides a variety of benefits, which include balance, coordination, motor skills, and a top rated cardio respiratory workout. During this unit students will learn basic skating skills such as starting, stopping, forward skating, backward skating, cornering, and a number of safety tips for being a smart skater!
Each student will be sent home with a permission slip, and it needs to be signed and returned in order to participate in the unit.
