PrintNew Shape of the Nation Report Released
The 2012 Shape of the Nation Report: Status of Physical Education in the USA provides a current picture of physical education in the American education system. The 2012 survey finds areas of both improvement and decline since the 2010 Shape of the Nation Report. New areas of the report include:
- comprehensive supplemental data tables
- whether physical activity is being used as punishment in states
- information about state education agencies collecting and enforcing school's and school district local school wellness policies
- Support for Safe Route to School programs
Advocates can use information from the Shape of the Nation report in presentations, letters, and other means of communication with federal and state policymakers, the media, and the general public as part of the basis for expanding and improving physical education.
View the entire report and see your states' status.
