FITNESS
Expectations for Fitness
- Be Positive
- Respect yourself, people, and this place
- Do the right thing
- Be responsible for your actions and your learning
- Always do your best
Fitness is an activity based class. Credit is earned by fully participating in all activities.
If a student is unable to participate, a note must be provided by the parent. If they are unable to participate for more than one day a physician’s note or a phone call from the parent is required. The note must list limitations as well as the activities that are acceptable.
Grading is based on 5 daily points for full participation in all activities. Points will be deducted for the following:
- Absent (-5)
- The first 2 absences are excused as “sick days”
- School planned field trips are excused
- Tardy (-1)
- Not dressed for activity (-5)
- Inappropriate language (-1 per infraction)
- Insubordination (-1 per infraction)
- Choosing not to participate at the appropriate level (-1 to 5 points) students may be required to wear a FITstep Pedometer to calculate daily points.
Students are expected to dress down each day for activity. Students should have clothes specifically for class and should not be the same clothes they wear to school. They should also have clean gym shoes that are only to be worn in the gym and the weight room. In the event we are in some form of remote learning, (Orange or Red) the expectation is that you will attend all online Fitness Math class meetings (Zoom, etc….). You will also be expected to complete weekly fitness logs as requested if classes are held online.
