Off Campus PE
OCPE
Purpose of the Off-Campus Physical Education Program (OCPE):
The Off-Campus PE (OCPE) program is an approved PE substitution that permits students in grades 6-12 to earn
credits that meet the District and State physical education requirements. Credit will not be retroactively approved.
Students who sign up for OCPE are expected to honor their commitment for the full year. Students are required to
complete the state mandated physical fitness test (Fitnessgram) while enrolled in OCPE. Requests for waivers for
approval of private or commercially sponsored physical activity programs will be considered in the following two
categories.

Agencies and Instructors Eligible to Provide OCPE:
The training facility, instructor and activity must be certified by the superintendent or a designated program administrator. Any private or commercially-sponsored agency must provide documentation to the Leander ISD athletic department that demonstrates exceptional quality, a professional trained staff, and the use of standards to verify participation of the student. Instructors must pass an annual background check and provide proof of CPR certification. All hours counting toward OCPE must be directly supervised by an approved coach. Students may not utilize two agencies, or combine activities to reach the hour requirement. Leander ISD personnel will make announced and unannounced site visits and will be expecting to see evidence of attendance records and practice plans. Failure to provide attendance records and practice places when requested could result in removal of the agency from the approved list. If an agency is not utilized for two years, it will be removed from the approved list. The list of approved agencies can be found here. Agencies and instructors that wish to be approved must contact Assistant Athletic Director Jennifer.Womack@leanderisd.org for more information.
