New Brief from NCSSLE on School-Based Physical Fitness: Its Link to Student Academic Outcomes and Improved School ClimateThe National Center on Safe Supportive Learning Environments (NCSSLE) just released a new brief, School-Based Physical Fitness and the Link to Student Academic Outcomes and Improved School Climate, outlining the growing body of evidence related to the value of school-based physical fitness.
