Program Mission
The Physical Education Program at Los Angeles Harbor College is dedicated to the support of the mission statement as presented by the Los Angeles Community College District and the Los Angeles Harbor College.
As one part of a comprehensive, well-balanced educational experience, physical education provides our students the opportunity to enhance their mental and physical abilities through lecture and physical activities, as well as intercollegiate sports.
Meeting the demand of our multicultural populations the Physical Education Department offers courses that have the potential to positively touch, steer, and impact students’ lives which will help students achieve knowledge, healthful living skills, critical thinking, and problem solving for future success.
The Adaptive Physical Education program serves the ever-changing needs of the community’s diverse special needs population. As for people with special needs the program is designed to ensures a progressive exercise therapy and a safe environment by promoting skills and activities for lifetime fitness, wellness, mobility and quality of life.
