Certain rules, grading policy and regulations are discussed as well as expectations that will help you with achievement in class. I look forward to having you this semester and please feel free to ask any questions that you may have.
Strength and conditioning is an advanced weight training class designed to develop and improve motor skills and movement concepts in strength, agility, speed, anaerobic conditioning, and plyometrics. Health related fitness such as nutrition and lifetime wellness and personal/social responsibility such as leadership and conflict resolution are also promoted during the curriculum.
Rules:
Three simple rules for class:
1. Be on time.
2. Respect everyone.
3. Appreciate what you have.
Grading:
- At least 14 major/minor grades will be entered for each semester:
- At least 4 major grades will be entered (60%)
Major grades – Achievement – Each day you achieve or target the goal for the day you will receive achievement credit. Students will be scored based on their level of achievement – developing, proficient, accomplished, or distinguished. Extra achievement credit can be earned during pacer tests.

Examples of minor grades – Handbook agreement, formal/informal technique assessments, pacer tests, Analysis of Student Work assessments, max tests, literacy assessments, personal/social responsibility comprehension.
