Welcome new & returning little leopards!
How exciting! A new year, a little older. We are going to have a great time in your child's Physical Education class! I want to take this time to emphasize some important expectations that will help my class run smoothly, please share them with your child;
BE RESPECTFUL, BE RESPONSIBLE, BE READY!
1. GYM SHOES must be worn at all times. They must tie, Velcro, zip, or fasten in some way to secure the shoe to the foot. They need to enclose and support the ankle, as well as, protect/cover the foot. Shoes that are not safe or acceptable in the gym include; sandals, flip flops, boots, heels, dress shoes, cleats, Keens, Crocs, or clogs.
2. APPROPRIATE CLOTHING should be worn to school on PE days. This should allow for freedom of movement and full participation in PE activities. Please consider shorts or leggings under dresses and skirts.
3. CANDY, GUM, and FOOD are NOT allowed in the gymnasium at any time.
4. NO JEWELRY that dangles or hangs will be allowed. This includes, but no limited to, hoop earrings, necklaces, rings, anklets, key chains, and purses.
5. A parent note/email/phone call is necessary for ANY MEDICAL ISSUE or injury affecting PE participation. In the event of serious illness/injury, a doctor's note will need to be provided in order to clear your child for participation. *Please make sure you thoroughly read through and sign the concussion information provided in your opening day packet, as this is now a state mandate for all students K-12 participating in PE or athletics.
