MDE is seeking feedback on the first draft of the next version of the K-12 Physical Education Standards. The window is open from February 27-March 16, 2017. From the Health and Physical Education page, "Legislation passed in 2016 requires the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) to adopt the national physical education standards and “modify them according to state interest.” Using the SHAPE America National Standards & Grade-Level Outcomes for K-12 Physical Education as a base, the Standards Committee is determining the changes that are needed to ensure that the national standards address state statutory requirements and best practices in physical education."
