On June 10, 2009, Dr. Richard Reiselt presented the new Georgia Performance Standards for Physical Education to the State School Board for approval. This is the culmination of a year-long project to develop new content standards for physical education. Dr. Jackie Lund, Associate Professor from the Kinesiology and Health Department at Georgia State University, chaired the 15 person writing team that developed the standards. If approved on June 11, 2009, the new Physical Education Standards will provide the framework for curriculum development for school district across the state.
