Frequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
How long is my student in health?
Health is a trimester long class. Students will have one trimester of health and two trimesters of fitness each year.Back to Top
When does my student have the human growth and development (FLASH/AIDS/HIV) unit?
This unit is taught at the end of the trimester. Mrs. Cotton will send out information in the school newsletter at least one month prior to teaching. Parents will then need to make an appointment with the office staff to view the curriculum and make a choice as to whether they would like to opt your student out. Students who are opted out will have an assignment that is designed to last for the duration of the health unit. (3 weeks)Back to Top
If you miss a health class you need to check the calendar on this website for missed work or ask Mrs. Cotton. Students are responsible for getting missed work and turning it in. Students have two days for each day they were absent to make up work. Please write "ABSENT" on the top of your homework.Back to Top
Make an appointment to stay after school with Mrs. Cotton so that she can provide the extra support you need.Back to Top
How do you stay in contact with families when you have so many students?
In an effort to stay connected with parents and keep families updated regularly I send out monthly e-mails to parents regarding grade updates. These e mails will also include important activities and/or assignments/due dates that are coming up. I also include class information in the core teams weekly newsletter as availble. Class informatin can also be found in the school newsletter each month. Please feel free to e mail or call me directly throughout the trimester.Back to Top
