Motivation Factor - What kids can look like when Physical Education is emphasized

I was blown away by the images from the documentary Motivation Factor. The film captures the results from La Siera High School in California, where a structured, daily physical education class happened. The results then from the 1960-1983 is pretty impressive. How have we lost our way? Why are we worried about self-esteem versus encouraging involvement and practice. If you build systems and recognition like they did in the movie, everyone has a chance to earn their “shorts”, everyone has a chance to win and thousands did through merit and accomplishment.
