Physical Education 

 

With warmer weather coming back we are noticing students wearing shoes that are not suitable for participating in pe activities.  These shoes include sandals, crocs, flip flops and slides.  We are okay with students wearing these shoes around the building but when it is time for physical education class we ask that these students change into a pair of running shoes that they are also bringing to school with them.  There is a great safety concern of students breaking bones in their feet or ankles with improper shoes participating in our activities.  Students wearing the incorrect footwear will be asked to sit out of activities until they fix the issues and parents will be notified of the issue. 

 

Last week Mr. van Vugt sent out an email to all parents about human sexuality starting the week of April 22nd for half of the classes and April 29th for the other half.  If parents are wanting their children to opt out of this programming they need to fill out the form included in the email and submit it to their child's pe teacher.  The form must be filled out in order to opt your children out of this activity and any student opting out will be working on a health assignment.  While half of the classes are learning about human sexuality the other half of the classes are doing fitness testing and seeing if they improved from their fall tests.
