Students are expected to wear clothes and shoes appropriate to the activity. Shorts, t-shirt and sneakers or sweats/warm-up suit for outdoor activities on cooler days.
Students must participate in at least 80% of scheduled classes. A student would receive a “0” for cutting class or coming to class unprepared and not participating.
Late to class – three late's result in ½ letter grade reduction.
Unprepared for class – if student has sneakers, but is not “changed out” for class – the student may receive credit for participation. The student would receive an “unprepared for the day” – three of which would result in ½ letter grade reduction. * There is a limit to 3 unprepared, but participating per quarter.
Short Term: Sick or Physically unable to participate in 1 or 2 classes – need note from parent or doctor –student would be excused for day, but absence would fall into the 80% consideration.
Long Term: Sick or Physically unable to participate for 50% or more of the quarter – Doctor’s note required – student will receive excused credit for the quarter towards graduation – but will be assigned a research project or appropriate activity for each quarter missed. – A student may only receive ONE PE credit per quarter for any long term medical excuse.
A student who has more than 20% absences can make up the excused absences on a 1 for 1 basis. Make up sessions will be held in the am from 6:45am-7:30am in the Fitness Center. Schedules will be posted.
