This petition is to prohibit students from "picking teams" in physical education classes, and require gym teachers to select teams in random order not based on the order of physical ability or inability.
Why is this important?
The purpose of this petition is to stop kids from being singled out in gym class. We need to eliminate the concept of being "picked last." A team should not be determined by its weakest or strongest player, but by how well they work together.
When gym teachers select at random order each time, this will allow kids to make new friends and ensure greater self development. Schools should aspire to be safe havens. They should be about bringing students together and not spreading them apart. JOIN IN! SIGN ON!
