Enrollment & Withdrawal

1. All senior athletes must be enrolled in an athletic class during their season of sport. Following their sport they may choose to drop the class or remain in a conditioning fitness class for the remainder of the semester. Exceptions must be approved by Athletic Director, Mr. Belcher.

2. All Junior & Sophomores must be enrolled in an athletic class during their season of sport. Following a fall or spring sport they must remain in the class for the remainder of the semester. Following a winter sport Juniors may drop the class & Sophomores may petition to waive their second semester requirement to a later date.

3. All Freshmen must be enrolled in a P.E. class. Every effort will be made to place them in a freshmen athletic class. During their season of sport they will attend their P.E. class apropriately dressed on any regular days. On block days they will sign-in with their respective teacher, following the guidelines below. While out of season they will be required to attend their P.E.class. Failure to follow policy may result in losing your privilege to sign-in and miss class.

4. To withdraw from the athletic class a student must get the approval of your coach and the Athletic Director BEFORE going to their Guidance Tech. Failure to officially withdraw from the class could result in your receiving an "F" for the class.


Grading Philosophy

1. Being an athlete does NOT guarantee you an automatic "A".

2. Final grades in P.E. are given on a quarterly basis. While you are in your season of sport your coach will determine your grade. If you conclude or spend a majority of the time in the athletic team sports class your teacher will determine your grade.

3. You will not be graded on whether you are a starter or great athlete but on the following guidelines: attendance at practice, effort during practice and athletic contests, your overall attitude and whether you sign-in properly and consistently.


Sign-In Procedures

1. It is important that you follow the sign-in procedures. Failure to do so could result in detention and have a negative effect on your athletic class grade.

2. Due to block scheduling you are required to sign-in only on the days that the class you are enrolled in meets. For example, if you are in 5th period athletics you will sign in on Mon., Tues., and Thurs. If you are in 6th period athletics you will sign in on Mon., Wed. and Friday.

3. You need to make sure where to sign-in with your respective teacher. You must sign-in prior to your teachers deadline time.

4. You are allowed to "forget" to sign-in ONCE per quarter, after that you will be required to spend one tutorial period with your teacher for each time you fail to sign-in properly.

5. Please DO NOT sign-in for someone else. Doing so may result in you and the person you sign-in for being required to do detention.

6. Make sure you check the absence list each time you sign-in to see if you are on it and need to clear anything up. Remember to communicate.

EACH STUDENT NEEDS TO BE AWARE THAT HE/SHE NEEDS TO BE VERY PROTECTIVE OF THEIR BOOKS, BACK PACKS, AND OTHER PERSONAL BELONGINGS. THERE IS NO SUPERVISION IN THE LOCKER ROOMS. ALL ITEMS NEED TO BE LOCKED IN ONE'S LOCKER OR BROUGHT OUTSIDE WITH YOU TO YOUR PRACTICE OR CLASS. PLEASE DO NOT SHARE LOCKERS.
