Re:Gym Class Is So Bad, Kids Are Skipping School to Avoid It by Fricken on Monday February 04, 2019 @08:17PM (#19082337)
I would think that the ultimate objective with physical education is to engender in kids a lifelong fitness habit. Given that once you leave school there really isn't much nowadays forcing people to get regular exercise, the only thing that really matters is that it's fun and rewarding.

I don't know why you'd grade kids at all on anything but their participation. Punishing a kid for being weak or poorly coordinated serves only to make them resent getting exercise.
