The Physical Education program at Piner High School focuses on personal fitness, life long activities, healthy living, team, individualized and non-traditional games, as well as teaching our students cooperation and teamwork. The first year program introduces students to a variety of fitness activities and proper weight training techniques and safety.


Students perform a variety of cardiovascular exercises using our all weather track, gyms, fitness lab equipment, jump ropes and various other workouts for the heart. Students get a full body workout at least once per week in our fitness lab. This is done by completing a cardiovascular workout and weight training on our Body Master Weight System, plus other weight resistance machines designed to improve strength. Students in the first year spend time in the classroom each week, learning about specific health and fitness related topics. Each student is required to keep a portfolio with all written work that is assessed on a regular basis. In addition to personal workouts and classroom pedagogy, first year students enjoy four week units that include a variety of sports and games.


The second year program focuses on sport specific courses such as dance, badminton, basketball, weight training and soccer. Students may also elect to take second year physical education in a P.E. 3~4 course in which students perform a variety of fitness based activities and are offered individual, team and non traditional activities throughout the school year.


Our facilities include an all weather track and artificial turf football/soccer field, tennis courts, baseball and softball fields, outdoor basketball courts, two gymnasiums, a classroom, a weight room and fitness lab. All students have opportunities to use all facilities during the physical education experience.
The Piner Physical Education program consists of four full time and two part time instructors.
