Exercise is effective by Jennifer - January 2023 Scholarship Essay

I always hated having to take PE as an elective throughout my school years. Later on when I reflected back on that time I realized that I should have been grateful for that class. I am a person that is heavy on weight and this would be the only time I would be able to work out. Working out has always been an escape from the world and when we have to go on runs I was one of the quickest due to me getting lost in the feeling of running. This class should be considered as required because while many students don’t see right away that the physical workout helps with balancing out of school stress or anything we have going on in our lives.
When taking physical education in the morning can be beneficial because of the way it can be used as a wake up call and you will be energized for the rest of your classes. I had actually taken PE at different times of the day and I think the best time where it helped was as my last period of the day because I would be able to take off all the stress I had of the day. PE is a class that is beneficial to a student at any time of the day to be better focused throughout the day.
I have known for students to look forward to when we would go to PE because they would love to play sports. There are some students that would like to play sports but not for school but to have fun with their friends and this was a great place where they were able to socialize without getting in trouble by teachers. PE has been a way for students to have basically a free period to hang with friends and have the stress reliever they may be looking for throughout the day.
