History

This project was originally started in l993. It was then put on hold while the Missouri Assessment Program in health and physical education was being developed.

In l996 the project was reactivated and has been conducted each year since that time.

The project is a combined effort of MOAHPERD and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education along with the Regional Professional Development Centers and the Southwest Center for Excellence in Education in Webb City, Missouri.

The purpose of the project is to provide professional development for health and physical education teachers on timely topics.
