Abstract
The following series of shon stories has been reconstructed, in part, from the data collected during an interpretive case study of an active living program at an adolescent treatment center/school (Halas, 1999). Using excerpts from interview transscripts, fi eldwork observations, reflective journal writing, and personal memories (from the author's past experiences as a teacher at the school). this fictional narrative describes how a day at a treatment center/school unfolds. not just on the basketball court, but also in terms of interconnected life issues. The configuration of stories to follow attempts to demonstrate how physical education can provide a space during the school day for change to occur, thus providing an alternative perspective from which to view the value of the physical activity experience, particularly for troubled youth.
