The basis for this research were a few publications on the morphofunctional development of rural schoolchildren, insufficient data on their complex examination and lack of regional standards for the physical development of rural schoolchildren. The aim of this study was to investigate the features of morphofunctional development of rural schoolchildren in Nizhny Novgorod region in modern conditions. For the study and development of regional physical development scorecards the surveys of 4619 rural students (2137 boys and 2482 girls) from 21 districts of the Nizhny Novgorod region were used. The examination program included somatoskopy, somatometry, physiometry and functional testing. To study the dynamics of physical development during the period of 1946-1968-2012 years, primary materials from the scientific report of the institute of pediatrics and health of rural schoolchildren in the Gorky region of 1945/46 years and the results of the survey of rural children of 1967/68 years were used. It was stated that the essential qualitative and quantitative changes of morphological and functional indicators of rural students have occurred over the last 65 years at the regional level. It was revealed that modern schoolchildren living in rural areas, have kept the specific morphofunctional status, which is different from those of the urban children and adolescents. According to the results obtained, using the centile method, the rating scales of the physical development of rural schoolchildren were developed
