Student Success Statement: John F. Kennedy

Physical Fitness
"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. The relationship between the soundness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know what the Greeks knew: that intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong."

This quote means that you can only do your best in school when you are physically healthy. You can do your best mentally when you are at your best physically. I agree with this a lot because I used to be really fit when I was younger but as soon as I got a computer I stopped excising and that was when my grades started dropping.
