For any doctor’s note that is handed in, it must state the student’s limitations and the length of those limitations. If the student needs to be excused for an extended period of time, a schedule change will be done. STUDENTS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO DRESS OUT WITH AN EXCUSED NOTE, UNLESS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

Medical Excuses:

A note from the parent is required each day a student is to be excused from participation in physical education because of illness or injury. If the student’s condition is serious enough to prevent him/her from participating for more than 2 consecutive school days, a note from the student’s physical will be necessary beginning on the 3rd day of non-participation. Failure to obtain a note from a physician on the 3rd day will result in the student losing their 10 class points each day that they continue not to participate. A student whose injury or illness prevents their active participation in physical education may be asked to assist the instructor during the class period or they may be given a written assignment as an opportunity to earn their 10 daily points. A student who has been advised by a physician not to participate in physical education for an extended period of time will be scheduled out of their physical education class as soon as possible.
