Hello parents, I hope all of you had a great summer. This year I am teaching the following grade levels: K,2nd,4th, and 7th. As we start our year I want to give you some important information in regards to my Health and Fitness class. Please email or call me if you have any questions or concerns. Junior Academy Grading Policy: 60% Participation 25% Tests 15% Classwork Elementary Grading Policy: 60% Participation 25% Tests 15% Classwork Safety: Please make sure you child wears the proper clothing and shoes for our P.E. class. Students will be required to participate in many physical activities, their attire is very important to be successful in my class. Students may also bring water and a hat or visor to wear in class, especially since we have another month of warm weather. Non-Participating Students: If your child is ill or has a medical condition, please make sure to send a note stating the reason why your child is not able to participate. 7th Grade Classes: This year, all of my 7th grade students will be required to develop a Health and Fitness portfolio. They are required to bring a 3 ring binder (1 in) and 5 dividers to school. If your child is not able to obtain a 3 ring binder please let me know and I will provide it for them.
