Class Failures?

If a student fails 9th or 10th grade Physical Education for the year, it 
must 
be made up the following year.  These courses cannot be made up in summer 
school.  If a student fails a semester of 11th or 12th grade Physical 
Education it may be made up as early as the following semester.  A student 
is 
not allowed to double up on Physical Education until their senior year.  At 
no time will a student be allowed to take more than two Physical Education 
classes.  This may mean that a student will be required to go to summer 
school to graduate on time.
