Physical Education – 6 Levels

Things to Consider:

  1. Proper Clothing and Footwear
    • No tank tops and no open-toed shoes or boots.
    • Students must be able to take on and off all of their own clothes and shoes. If your child cannot tie their shoes, please do not send them to class with shoes that need to be tied.
    • Students will be given 5 minutes before and after class to get changed in the bathroom.
  2. Respect the teacher, other students, and PE equipment. If any issues with this arise, the student will first receive a verbal warning. If it happens again, they will be sent to the office, and on a third occurrence, a parent will be notified. If the behavior persists past those steps, there is the possibility to be removed from the class.
  3. Parental Involvement: Parents are welcome to sit in for the first week or two of the year if their child is having difficulty adjusting to the class, but after 2 weeks, the student is expected to be able to handle being in class without a parent present. Other than extreme exceptions, which would have to be approved by the teacher, if a child cannot participate in class without a parent present after the first 2 weeks, they should be withdrawn from the class.
  4. Participation: Since this is a class without typical tests and homework, the two biggest factors in grades are attitude and participation. If your child can physically participate (no sickness or injury) then they are expected to do so. They may not simply refuse because they do not feel like it that day, or it will affect their grade significantly (after a verbal warning and parental notification of the problem).
