Students may purchase the uniform during class time the first week of school, after that time uniforms must be purchased at the student store during lunch.
Socks and tennis shoes with laces are required and are considered part of the gym uniform.
Students who do not bring appropriate athletic shoes will not be allowed to participate due to safety concerns. This will result in a loss of points for the day(s). Some non-appropriate shoe styles include flip flops, slides, Crocs, cleats, sock-shoes, slippers, sandals, etc.
Students will purchase a locker and will be required to pay a lock fee for the use of a school issued lock. Sharing lockers with other students is prohibited.
WEIGHT ROOM POLICIES AND PROCEDURES:
Cell phones or other electronic devices are not allowed in the weight room whether you are dressed or not dressed, and WILL be confiscated and sent to the dean’s office.
Headphones & earbuds are NOT allowed in the weight room. This is a safety measure.
Coronado will not be responsible for lost or stolen items, so please do not bring them to the weight room.
Wearing gym clothes over street clothes will result in a NON-DRESS.
Your gym clothes should be taken home at the end of the week to be washed.
Absences due to participation in school activities or religious holidays will not be assessed any point (or credit) deductions, but all tests must be made up.
No food or drink (besides water) allowed in the weight room at any time.
Lock combinations, missing locks and/or new locks must be obtained before the tardy bell rings.
Lost clothing will be held in the weight room office for one school week, and then turned into the schools lost and found.
Students missing class points due to an EXCUSED non-dress or EXCUSED absence will be given the opportunity to make up those missed points.
ALL students are required to keep their weight room attire in a locker in the locker room. Students must first go to the locker room, change into their attire & head straight to the weight room. Attendance is taken 5 minutes after the bell rings to allow for changing to occur. Locker Room Conduct:
The locker room doors will be locked when the late bell rings and no one will be permitted to enter afterwards.
To prevent thefts, horseplay and vandalism, the locker rooms will be supervised. Students not following proper locker room conduct may lose locker room privileges.
At the end of class, you must store your weight training clothes in your assigned small locker. Do not share lockers with your friends, as problems may arise.
If you lose your lock, see your teacher. You will have to pay for a replacement (this replacement lock MUST be purchased from the CHS PE teacher). Do NOT put personal locks on your locker – they will be removed and you will not be refunded
Teachers will not hold your valuables.
Class Rules:
1. Follow directions, be on time and be prepared for class.
2. Respect all people and equipment in class.
3. No electronic devices (cell phones, iPods, games, etc.) in class.
4. Please do not bring food into class, gyms or locker rooms.
5. Please do not bring valuables to the weight room class.
Excused Notes (Parent and Medical):
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 participation for more than TWO consecutive school days, a note from the student’s physician will be required 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 class points for each day that they do not participate. A student whose injury of 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 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. STUDENTS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO DRESS OUT WITH AN EXCUSED NOTE, UNLESS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE.
