I was watching the news tonight and it said that skate boarding is a program used in some high school gym class in some city in New York. They have ramps and provide the skate boards, as well as knee pads and helmuts. I wish we had this program in my high school gym class. The program used is for students that do not want to play sports, they can skate and get graded. They have to learn to fall, and I think its pretty interesting. What are your thoughts?
