Participation Policy: All students must dress-out in the required PE uniform and participate in class daily. A parent note does not excuse a student from dressing-out for class, but may allow for a modified PE lesson. A doctor’s note may excuse the student from dressing-out and participating in class based on those recommendations. Always ask a doctor for modified activity. If modifications are not suggested so the student may stay and participate in parts of class, an alternate project will be given and graded for daily class credit.**
