A parent and/or doctor note should be specific. List the injury/illness, how long the student will be out of an activity, or if student can do modified exercises. Does the student need to be excused from all activity or just some exercises? The note is to be turned into the Health Aide office before school on the day the student cannot participate. Parent notes only excuse students from activities for a maximum of 3 days. A doctor note will be required after that period of time. </p><p>PARTICIPATION POINTS: Each day that a student attends and participates in class they receive 5 points; run days are worth 10 points. Participation includes warm-up exercises, running assignments, sports, and fitness activities. Students absent from class or excused from participation receive a temporary zero for that day. Those points can ALWAYS be made up. Make-up Points: A student’s grade can be seriously affected by missing class activities (absences or notes). Lost points due to student’s inability to participate in class can be made up by completing 2 laps. Sports packets and/or logs maybe assigned for long term absences. </p><p>Semester Grade Breakdown - Participation: 50% of overall grade Received Daily</p><p>Skills/Fitness Test and Written Work: 50% of overall grade Circuit & Mile runs Fitness Testing Fitness Folder Written Tests</p><p>*Total amount of points at the end of each semester will vary with each teacher, but will still follow the following grade breakdown:</p><p>90% and higher = A 80% and higher = B 70% and higher = C 60% and higher = D 59% or below = F</p><p>*Extra Credit opportunities are for all students who demonstrate improvement in their best mile times. </p><p>Citizenship Grade: Citizenship is evaluated as a separate score.
