Expectations

During every trimester of PE, students receive a copy of the PE Expectations to review with a parent/guardian, sign and return indicating that they understand the expectations for appropriate PE attire, behavior, and procedures for class and illness/injury notes.

Earning an "A" is an accomplishment in any subject and demonstrates mastery in the component being assessed. In PE, all assessments are designed using the Colorado PE Level Standards. The categories and rubrics for each are available below.

FitnessGram

Jeffco students participate in FitnessGram, a program that assesses three general components of health-related physical fitness which have been identified as important to overall health and function.

At West Jeff, we assess aerobic capacity with the PACER test, a 20 meter progressive, multi-stage shuttle run set to music; muscular strength with curl up and push up tests; and flexibility with a shoulder stretch test.

Jeffco has benchmarks set at 5th, 7th and 9th grades. At West Jeff, we test all of our students, but only our 7th grade families will receive a full score report sent home by the district.
