Physical Education Assessments and BMI

This is a great forum now.  So much different than the one of years ago Sportime had, but

it also was extremely popular and a huge amount of responses.

I would like to know from colleagues out there how you assess your students' performance in physical fitness?  How often?  And if and how you report it to parents and/or school boards.

Also, if you do BMI measurements and if you do report that to parents and how you report it.

Can be all levels.

thanks,

In my district we use FitnessGram. We test once in the fall and then again in the spring. We privately take our students to measure height and weight and the program calculates these measurements weight with their pacer score to come up with an aerobic capacity level. We send these reports home via email along with a letter as to what the scores mean. Our students and parents are able to look back at previous FitnessGram scores from 4th grade to 8th grade.
