4.  FITNESSGRAM® is a web-based application that will capture the fitness scores of students.  For all PYFP funding schools/districts, the software is hosted by The Cooper Institute, creators of FITNESSGRAM®.  Because of the time burden for PE teachers to manually enter all their students, we are strongly urging IT to import the data relationships for teachers/classes/students into FITNESSGRAM®.  We thank all system IT for their assistance to schools receiving funding!
