Homework Expectations
PE does not assign daily homework.
Absences: For each absence, students may do a make-up assignment. The make-up assignment is a one page report that covers any sport, health, fitness, or physical education topic. Students are responsible for turning in the make-up assignment in a timely manner. All make-up work must be turned in prior to the last weeks of the semester. All assignments must be hand written. No computer, word processor, or typed assignments will be accepted. Absences or school sponsored activities: sports, clubs, field trips, etc. do not require a make-up assignment.Classroom Supplies/Donation Requests
