RE: Phys Ed Program
for Students in Pre-K through Grade 8
GYM begins
Monday, September 8
Some grades have
more than one gym period this year. There are also
open gym periods for grades to alternate for an extra
class, to be determined weekly by the teacher.
Students will also participate in recess two to three
times per day and play on the playground. On
occasion students will also walk escorted with their
teacher to utilize the University of New England fields
and their gym, the cemetery, Burbank Library, and
McAuley High School.
Until the gym
uniform arrives, students should wear plain white or
navy t-shirts and navy blue shorts/sweatpants. NO
LOGOS. Plain white athletic socks should be worn
with white bottom sneakers.
PARTICIPATION
If your child is in school, he/she is expected to
participate in the physical education class of the day.
However, if your child has been ill, has a cold or
injury, or a need which warrants modification of his/her
program for the day; or, if he/she needs to be excused
from a given day's class, a written note from the
parent(s) must be presented to the classroom teacher who
will in turn present it to Mrs. Caiola and then file it
in the school office.
Activities on each day of "gym", for each grade
level include both quiet and more strenuous skills,
games etc. Therefore, it is imperative that your
note specify your intent of a modified phys ed class for
the given day, or an excused absence from the class.
Please recall that phys ed is a required program of
education, mandated by State law.
SPECIAL NEEDS
If your son/daughter has any "special needs" such as
vision or hearing limitation, asthma, heart murmur,
coordination delay, etc. please send a note of
explanation (and if available, a list of recommendations
from his/her doctor), so that Mrs. Caiola can better
understand and help your child when she has him/her in
class. Please attach a "health note" if
appropriate. Thank you.
