Basic Information about Health & Fitness

I just wanted to post a few facts about Health & Fitness.

Activities in Health & Fitness:
We will be working on a variety of activities during Health & Fitness. Each activity is created using the California Physical Education Standards. If you would like to see the state physical education standards please visit: http://www.cde.ca.gov/re/pn/fd/documents/pestandards.pdf

Junior Academy Grading (Sixth to Eighth grade)
60% for participation
25% for assessments (Quizzes, Tests and other Assessments)
15% for classwork

Elementary Academy Grading (First grade to Fifth Grade)
60% for participation
40% for classwork

Attire:
Please dress for movement for Health & Fitness. This included wearing both proper shoes for movement and proper clothes for movement.

Excused Notes:
Parents notes are good for one day (and only one day) if a student cannot participate in class.
Doctors notes are needed for periods longer than one day. If a doctor's note is necessary, we would like to know if the doctor will allow us to modify the activity so the student can participate at least a little.

Bad Weather Days:
From time to time we do experience bad weather days. The Health & Fitness teachers are constantly checking the weather channels and also for any air quality issues that might cause a change in our activities. Bad weather can cause us to either change our activity for the day or may cause us to go inside to complete a lesson. If you have any questions, please ask.
