Green Elementary Academics and Athletics Magnet School walked over to
Patrick Henry and surprised the student body with wonderful dance and
music during lunch. The Patrick Henry principal was in on the secret and
introduced the students and Green Elementary PE teachers.
The PE
curriculum at Green Elementary includes various forms of dance
including Ballroom dance with all the manners and cordial academics
associated with it. In addition students learn cultural dances in
preparation of the Junior Olympics celebration Green has in late spring.
The PE Department and Green Elementary School have received numerous
awards for their athletic program in addition to their high ranking
academic scores.
Some of these are: Best Physical Education
