Description of Service:

Adapted physical education  (APE) is physical education, which may be adapted or modified to address the individualized needs of children and youth who have gross motor developmental delays.

Eligibility Criteria for Adapted Physical Education Services:

The National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) and the American Association for Physical Activity and Recreation (AAPAR) recommend that students be considered eligible for adapted physical education services if their comprehensive score is 1.5 standard deviations below the mean on a norm-referenced test, or at least two years below age level on criterion-referenced tests or other tests of physical and motor fitness. Those tests include, but are not limited to, fundamental motor skills and patterns, and skills in aquatics, dance, individual games, group games and/or sports.
