Yes, because kids today in America are overweight and watch more TV than ever before. Requiring them to do some kind of physical activity for an hour a day is better than nothing.
Also, some high schools offer special physical education classes, like aerobics, weight training, etc. This also helps teens choose activities to keep them active later in life.

Yes, but only if it is used for the right purpose. Many kids are going through physical and emotional changes through high school. It's important to develop your body as well as your mind during this time. It's important to learn about fitness and recreational activities that will help you stay active throughout your life. I have no personal bias - just because I have a degree in Health and Physical Education.

I don't think they should have it after lunch. Blood in stomach causes fatigue.
Kids today are getting away with being too lazy during p.e. with little consequence.
Failure to participate actively in a more strict regiment during p.e. should carry harsher penalties.
Our kids should be strong!

Yes...first of all as a nation we are to overweight and out of shape. Secondly, it helps create a pattern of activity that some will carry into adulthood.
