Course Syllabus for Personal fitness

Credit Earned: ½ Carnegie Unit for a grade of 70 or higher

Personal fitness is class that is part class work and part physical participation. The physical participation portion of the class will be conducted after the academic issues have been addressed. If it becomes necessary to make a change we will make every effort to inform you as soon as possible. The Physical Education department reserves the right to restrict items of clothing that it deems inappropriate. You will receive a dress out protocol letter.

Class will meet in the assigned area unless otherwise instructed. Writing utensils are a must on most days. Pleasecome to class prepared! You will be required to keep a note book for this class. The best type would be a small three ring binder with 5 dividers. This notebook should include a date for every day of class with a brief description of the assignment(s) of the day. We only have a class set of books so this is very important! It is your responsibility to make sure any items of value are secured. I suggest you give them to your teacher prior to dressing out. If it is not necessary to bring it to school you probably need to leave it at home.

“WE ARE HERE TO LEARN AND HAVE FUN WHILE LEARNING”
