These are the expectations that are consistent throughout all classrooms and common areas at Watford City Middle School. These guidelines are fully applicable to Physical Education + Health class as well and were explained to students on the first day of school.
Please contact me or the WCMS office if you have questions about these student expectations.
Come Prepared: In Physical Education...
Appropriate physical activity shoes are required EVERY DAY
Shoe must STAY on your foot while running or kicking (Hey Dudes, Vans, Converse, etc are fine!)
NO Crocs, snow boots, cowboy boots, or fashion boots (Sorels, Uggs, etc), high heels, or sandals (Birkenstocks, slides, flip flops) of any kind
If you student likes to wear other shoes to school, please encourage them to keep PE shoes in their locker - they will NOT be counted as tardy for changing shoes before class if they check in with me first.
Come Prepared: In Health...
Charged Chromebook (or Chromebook + charger) are required EVERY DAY
Reading material of your student's choice (novel, newspaper, magazines etc)
Reading on the Chromebook is NOT an appropriate alternative for this expectation
Personal Items Stowed: When learning in the...
Fitness Room: Water bottles can be stored on the tall table in the classroom, sweatshirts can be hung on hooks in the hallway, and all other personal items (including Chromebooks, belt bags, and Yondr pouches) must be stored in student lockers
Gym: Water bottles and sweatshirts can be stored on the stage, all other personal items (including Chromebooks) must be stored in student lockers
Health Room: Personal items can be kept with the student at their desk (backpacks must be kept in lockers - school policy)
Stay on your feet (Fitness Room + Gym)
Students are expected to stay on their feet at all times unless otherwise instructed
The equivalent of this expectation in the Health room is that students keep their heads up off their desks unless their work is completed
Hands off (Fitness Room + Gym)
Students are expected to keep their hands off ALL equipment and learning materials until instructions are given
