Department of War Education Activity (DoWEA) students at Lejeune High School warm up with dynamic stretches, arm circles, and light jogging in preparation for the Presidential Fitness Test. These essential pre-event routines increase blood flow, loosen muscles, and help participants perform at their best while reducing the risk of injury during the upcoming fitness challenges. The revived Presidential Fitness Test, now mandatory across DoWEA schools, builds physical readiness, resilience, and lifelong healthy habits for military-connected students.
DoWEA operates as a field activity of the Office of the Secretary of War. It is responsible for planning, directing, coordinating, and managing prekindergarten through 12th-grade educational programs for the Department of War. DoWEA operates 161 accredited schools in 9 districts in 11 foreign countries, seven states, Guam, and Puerto Rico. DoWEA Americas operates 50 accredited schools across two districts on 16 military installations, including Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard bases in seven states, Puerto Rico and Cuba. Committed to excellence in education, DoWEA fosters well-rounded, lifelong learners through DoWEA’s academic programs, ensuring continued innovation and excellence, while advancing a strong focus on patriotism, classical learning, and civics education in support of military-connected students worldwide.
