Pacer Test
Healthy Or Annoying?
All of GSB’s students partake in a bi annual running event. On September 13th most of the schools students did the test. In this event the students run back and forth in the gym as long as they can, most 8th graders averaged about 30 times when the standard is 24. A 8th grade boy got the highest in the 8th grade b class with a total 70 laps. The whole class is involved with cheering on everybody. But as much fun and team building this activity is, is it necessary? Most students will probably say no as a normal human being would when it comes to running, but why is this test still actively used in public schools. Well that's because it is a standard and basically a public school law that tells administrators
