 Classes meet for 40 minutes and rotate on a 4-day rotation schedule.  Your child will have Physical Education, Art, Music, and Computer Technology and meet ever 4 days.  If you child has P.E. on Monday, their next P.E. class will be on Friday.  The next week your child will have P.E. on Thursday, followed by the next week having P.E. on Wednesday.  and so on.

Appropriate footwear must be worn in each P.E. class to ensure your child's safety.

Athletic shoes with laces or velcro are acceptable.  Crocs, boots, sandals, flip-flops, and dress shoes are some examples of what not to wear on their feet.  

Please have your child wear athletic apparel or comfortable clothing which will allow them to perform stretching and turning upside down.  Dresses and skirts are examples of what may keep your child from performing all the activities.  

 

 If your child needs excused from P.E. for the day, please send written excuse from a parent or guardian.  E-mails are also acceptable.   Extended illnesses or injuries require a doctor's note explaining their limitations and when they can return to P. E.
