Physical Education Requirements
Students are required to wear appropriate clothes and shoes for physical education classes. This would include tennis shoes, t-shirts, shorts, jeans, or sweat pants. Sandals, crocs, dress shoes, flip-flops, and boots with or without heels are not suitable for physical education class. These requirements are needed to ensure the students' safety and fitness development. If these requirements are not met, students will get a "No Dress" for the day. After the second "No Dress" in the grading period, a supervised study will be given.
Participation is required by all students. Progress reporting will be based on the Indiana Academic Standards and assessed through student participation (appropriate dress), individual progress, and any written tests or assignments. Non-participation will be excused only if students have a doctor's written release or parent written request for specific health reasons (returning form an illness, sprained ankle, etc.). After two consecutive physical education classes have been missed with a parent release, a doctor's excuse will be required to continue non-participation for a specific medical condition. In such cases, a specific limit of time should be indicated.
