A quality elementary PE program can contribute to the development of self-esteem amongst children and research proves that children who are more active have greater social success and positive relations with peers. During middle school, PE class can provide students with the opportunities to demonstrate leadership, socialization, and goal setting skills. Perceived competence and ability also affects future participation and self-esteem. At high school, PE class should provide an array of sports and lifelong activities in order to give students the opportunity to establish habits and attitudes about the role of physical activity in their lifetime.
