Each year, we present three schools in each state with the State Champion
Award. To earn the award, a school must have the highest percentage of its
students qualify for the Presidential Physical Fitness Award (individual scores
of the 85th percentile or higher on the Physical Fitness Test) in its school
enrollment category:
Category 1: Schools with 50-200 student
enrollment
Category 2: Schools with 201-500 student
enrollment
Category 3: Schools with over 500 student
enrollment
Only schools (including home schools) with 50 or more students are currently
considered for the State Champion Physical Fitness Award.
The Award
The winning school in each category receives a distinctive award certificate
and recognition on the President's Challenge Web site. Students who help their
school become a state champion by earning the Presidential Physical Fitness
Award will receive an embroidered emblem to be placed directly below the
Presidential Award emblem and a certificate of recognition. These awards are
provided free of charge. Winning schools are also eligible to order State
Champion Award T-shirts.
