PE Notes/Recess
- Parents may request that their child not participate in physical education classes for up to three consecutive days with a written note to the school nurse, who will then contact the teacher.
- Physical education excuses for more than three days must be signed by a doctor with the exact time frame of day(s) a student is to be excused. The physician's office can fax notes directly to the nurse at 847-251-4086 Attn: Andrea Zito.
- If a student with an injury can still participate with modifications per the physician, it needs to be explicitly stated on the note. Ex. student has a cast on their arm but can participate in non-contact activities.
- Students who have been excused from physical education will not participate in physical activity at recess.
- Recess
- Students are expected to go outside for recess unless it is raining or extremely cold. The school makes that determination.
- Unless we have a note from a physician, we do not keep children in from recess.
- During the winter months and during other times, we may have inclement weather. Please send your child to school with appropriate clothing.
- Boots and snow pants are required to play in the snow during the winter.
