Beginning January 22, 2024, Bishop Chatard Physical Education classes will be participating in an in-house skating program. The skates will be delivered directly to the school. Due to insurance purposes, we will be exclusively using Skatetime School Programs® skates.

This skating unit is being implemented because of its emphasis as a “Lifetime Activity.” Skating provides a variety of benefits, which include balance, coordination, motor skills, and a top-rated cardio-respiratory workout. Students will also learn basic skating skills such as starting, stopping, forward skating, backward skating, cornering, and a number of safety tips for being a smart skater.

The fee for this unit will be $12.00 for quad skates. The fee includes delivery and pickup of the equipment as well as use of the skates for 10 days of skating during normal P.E. Class.
