Course Description:  This course is a combination of both Health and Physical Education with a strong emphasis on Fitness.  Each part will be graded equally to determine the final mark. This class is a graduation requirement, failure is not an option 

Course Goals: Students will come out with a better understanding of fitness as well as health issues that are dealt with every day.

Required Materials: Comfortable clothing such as sneakers, sweat pants, shorts, t-shirts, sweatshirts (workout clothing only).  NO: flip flops, loafers, boots, jeans, tank tops, cut-off shirts, or clothing that may be distracting.

Participation:

  1. Students are expected to dress out and participate every day.
  2. The only excuse is an injury that is too severe to participate which should be determined by a physician, and a DOCTORS NOTE IS REQUIRED. (STUDENT IS STILL REQUIRED TO DRESS OUT AND THE TEACHER WILL GIVE AN ALTERNATE OR MODIFIED PLAN)
  3. If a student chooses not to dress out or participate, the student should inform the teacher as attendance is taken. This will result in a 10pt. deduction from the student’s overall participation grade and cannot be made up. NO STUDENT IS ALLOWED IN THE LOCKER ROOM IF THEY ARE NOT DRESSED OUT OR PARTICIPATING THAT DAY.
  4. Canvas Assignments: All canvas assignments are due by 11:59pm Sunday of the same week. Once the assignment time is closed it will not be re-opened, no late assignments will be accepted.

 

 

Locks and Locker Room: 

  1. Locker rooms will be accessible during class time only with enforcement of social distancing and daily disinfecting and appropriate cleaning measures.
  2. Locker rooms will remain locked during class time. No one will be permitted in during class time for any reason.  If you are leaving early from class, be sure to show your teacher your dismissal note during attendance.
  3. All bags must be taken with you after class. No storage will be allowed during the school day or overnight.
