Law 102 as reported through the 2015-2016 STARS database. It is important to note that schools self-report their scheduling
information in STARS. The report also includes information regarding the number and ratio of certified physical education
instructors and designated physical education instructional space. This report consists of six tabs: 1. PE Instruction Borough-Level
2. PE Instruction District-Level 3. PE Instruction School-Level 4. Certified PE Teachers 5. PE Space 6. Supplemental Programs
1. PE Instruction Borough-Level This tab includes the average frequency and average total minutes per week of physical education
by borough, disaggregated by grade, race and ethnicity, gender, special education status and English language learner status.
This report only includes students who were enrolled in the same school across all academic terms in the 2015-16 school year.
Data on students with disabilities and English language learners are as of the end of the 2015-16 school year. Data on adaptive
PE is based on individualized education programs (IEP) finalized on or before 05/31/2016. 2. PE Instruction District-Level

This tab provides information on all designated indoor, outdoor and off-site spaces used by the school for physical education

on each room category is self-reported by principals, and principals determine how each room is classified. Data captures
if the PE space is co-located, used by another school or used for another purpose. Includes gyms, athletic fields, auxiliary
exercise spaces, dance rooms, field houses, multipurpose spaces, outdoor yards, off-site locations, playrooms, swimming pools
and weight rooms as designated PE Space. 6. Supplemental Programs This tab provides information on the department's supplemental

(5.96% of the 10th-12th grade base student population in our analysis) were permitted a substitution by the department in
the 2015-16 school year. Additional Information: "Move-to-Improve (MTI) The MTI K-5 physical activity program is designed
to create and support an active learning environment in the classroom and school community. MTI activities blend academics
and physical activity into educational lessons that support New York State PE Learning Standards and are integrated with Common
Core Learning Standards. The MTI program is free and includes benefits and incentives for students, teachers, principals,
and schools. MTI activities are inclusive and designed to enhance academic learning during classroom instruction. A growing
body of research suggests that student success depends on a combination of academic skills, healthy lifestyle, and physical
and mental fitness. Specifically, in NYC, the correlation between fitness levels and academic achievement has been shown:

PE program, led by a certified or designated PE teacher, have the opportunity to become an MTI All-Star school by training
at least 85% of their eligible teachers in MTI. New York State requires all elementary schools to provide at least 120 minutes
of PE every week for all students. MTI All-Star schools can use MTI activities during classroom instructional time to supplement
their existing PE program to meet this requirement. MTI All-Star schools receive MTI implementation guidance and Citywide
recognition of MTI best practices All NYC district public schools with classroom teachers serving grades K-5 are eligible
to participate in the MTI program. For the 2016-2017 school year, elementary schools can participate in MTI in two ways: 1)
MTI Train-the-Trainer - Certified or designated PE teachers from district public elementary schools can attend an MTI Train-the-Trainer
(TTT) session where they will learn to become MTI trainers for their school. - TTT sessions are offered during school hours
so PE teachers will need to be released to attend. 2) MTI Event - K-5 classroom teachers (including cluster, PE, and special
education) from district public schools can register for an open MTI workshop session offered citywide. - Participating teachers
receive UFT negotiated training rate (for after-school hours) and a certificate of completion (can count towards the 175 hours
of professional development; contingent on principals approval)."; abstract: Background, Methodology: Local Law 102 enacted
