Physical Education and Wellness
The Physical Education and Wellness classes provide the student with the skills and knowledge necessary to participate in a variety of physical activities and to establish and maintain a healthy lifestyle to promote individual wellness throughout his/her entire life.
Students are expected to participate in all activities unless excused medically.
Students are required to make up every missed P.E. class regardless of reason. This can be done after school, attending another PE class during a SDA or by submitting an article on a sport, physical activity, or health related issue and write a summation approximately one paragraph.
“If a student has a medical exemption/excuse for PE, they can not participate in an interscholastic sport until the PE exemption is cleared.”
