Physical Education Data Dashboard
The Physical Education Data Dashboard is a report by the Arizona Department of Education that offers insights into K-12 physical education course access and enrollment rates in Arizona schools. The Dashboard allows users to explore the state's physical education data, exploring statewide geographic comparisons, county-/district-/school-level reporting, enrollment information, and trends in enrollment over time. The dashboard also includes granular detail of physical education enrollment by demographic, including Grade Level and Race/Ethnicity. The Arizona State Board of Education requires the inclusion of physical education in the minimum course of study requirements for all K-8 students in Arizona (Administrative Code R7-2-301).
*Please note: The data used for the Arizona Physical Education Data Dashboard is self-reported by Schools and LEAs and, therefore, may not reflect a complete account of student enrollment or access. Schools and LEAs may refer to the LEA Data Reporting Toolkit for support in reporting accurate physical education enrollment.
Explore the interactive dashboard below to learn more about what students have access to and what schools provide physical education courses in Arizona schools (dashboard may take up to 30 seconds to load).
