One-third of young people in grades 9 to 12 get an insufficient amount of moderate to vigorous physical activity.
Over 11 percent of high school students get no moderate to vigorous physical activity.
Participation in physical activity declines as children get older. Sixty-nine percent of ninth graders participate in vigorous physical activity on a regular basis, while only 55 percent of 12 th graders participate in the same level of activity.

Nationwide, the percentage of high school students enrolled in physical education was 56 percent in 2003 (71% of 9 th graders, 61% of 10 th graders, 46% of 11 th graders, and 40% of 12 th graders).
The percentage of students who attended a daily physical education class has dropped from 42 percent in 1991 to 28 percent in 2003.
The percentage of schools that require physical education in each grade declines form about 50 percent in grades 1 through 5 to 25 percent in grade 8, to only 5 percent in grade 12.

Move student from a state of dependence on external instruction and motivation to a state of independent motivation and decision making.
