Student Testimony<br />
"I am proud of what I have<br />
accomplished this year,<br />
especially since P.E. isn't my<br />
strongest suit. I didn't expect to<br />
win, but winning inspired me to<br />
do better in the future.<br />
The Olympian (Barbara<br />
Edmonson) that came was<br />
amazing! She told us about her<br />
background and how she<br />
became an Olympian for track &<br />
Field. After that, she did a couple<br />
of exercises with us and would<br />
also play a few games. Coming<br />
from a person who doesn't love<br />
exercising, the games were<br />
surprisingly fun! She pushed and<br />
encouraged us to try our best,<br />
and so I became more motivated.<br />

Teacher Testimony<br />
"As I was in the process of choosing the<br />
one student who was the most<br />
deserving of the award, I thought about<br />
the most critical criteria that puts a<br />
student at a disadvantage. I determined<br />
that it was Body Mass Index (BMI).<br />
Those students with BMIs not in the<br />
Healthy Fitness Zone were more likely<br />
not to pass 5 out of the 6 <strong>FitnessGram</strong><br />
categories. Of all my students passing 5<br />
or more of the 6 categories, Kayla S.<br />
had the highest BMI (28.4). She<br />
overcame despite the odds being<br />
against her."<br />
