CLOTHING: For the same reason of health, safety and personal hygiene; classroom clothing may not be worn while participating in P.E. classes. Please label all P.E. clothes and shoes, as the school is NOT responsible for lost or stolen articles. To be prepared and earn points in class, students are required to have and wear the following items for each class:
T-shirt and sweatshirt, athletic shorts or sweatpants, and proper athletic shoes are acceptable.
Outdoor gear- appropriate outdoor gear will be needed when we go outside.
Shoes: Absolutely no slides, crocs, boots, heels,etc. Students will be unable to participate in PE for the day, without proper footwear. PE has many available shoes to borrow for the day that are available for student use.
LOCKS: Locks are issued to each student. He/she is responsible for the lock. To replace a lost lock, a fee of $8.00 will be charged at the office before a new lock will be issued. Privately owned locks are not allowed.
MEDICAL CONCERNS: All medical problems are handled through the school nurse. Contact her BEFORE school. DISTRICT POLICY: Students may not be excused from participating in activities for more than 3 days without a doctor’s excuse on file in the nurse’s office. Students are responsible for missed P.E. work. Written or modified assignments will be required each day. Very Important- All injuries MUST be reported immediately to your P.E. teacher.
