PETALUMA JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL

PE MEDICALS

It is important that students and parents communicate any medical issues with the PE teacher

All medical notes should specify a student's restrictions and/or modifications. It is highly recommended, if possible, that you ask the doctor for Modified PE or a list of limitations. If we know what the student can and can't do, then we are able to modify their activities so that they can continue to participate in class assignments to the best of their ability.

NO PARTICIPATION = NO CREDIT (since we can not give credit for work that is not done, that means the student would have to make up the work later)

PARENT NOTES:

  • Student still dresses for PE

  • Student will be given a modified assignment

  • Students not able to participate at all will be required to do an alternate assignments or PE make ups

DOCTOR NOTES:

  • May excuse a student from dressing and/or limit their physical activity (depending on the injury/illness)

  • Student will be given a modified assignment

  • Students not able to participate at all will be required to do an alternate assignments or PE make ups

STUDENTS ON EXTENDED MEDICALS MAY BE PUT ON A PASS/FAIL GRADE

STUDENTS WHO CAN NOT PARTICIPATE IN PE SHOULD NOT BE PARTICIPATING IN OUTSIDE SPORTS
