Physical Education in schools in 1960's #JFKChallenge

submitted by Antonio Montes on 10/04/15 1

Check out this awesome video put together to raise funds for a documentary to create a national discussion about this program and the state of PE in public schools. In 1962, JFK gave a speech to the nation challenging them to make a “great national effort.” He held the La Sierra High PE up as the model for the nation to follow. 4,000 high schools followed this program. This is the only known digitized copy of his speech. The footage shows one high school PE class. Remember, this is a normal PE class at the high school. This was PE 50 years ago in America! Help us make this happen again. Ron Jones, MS, founder of The Lean Berets (Executive Producer), Doug Orchard (Producer/Director). www.indiegogo.com/projects/la-sierra-high-pe
