Physical Education classes are taught by Mrs. Deanna Jenkins in Kindergarten through 4th grade.

5th through 8th grade Phys Ed classes are taught by Mrs. Virginia Trigilio (please see her homepage for information).

4ththrough 8th Grade Phys Ed follows this grading system:

 

Give Me Five!

  1. Prepared/dressed appropriately 5 pts.
  2. Practice good sportsmanship 5 pts.
  3. Participate to best of your ability 5 pts.
  4. Respect equipment, classmates, teacher 5 pts.
  5. Follow class rules 5 pts.

Each time your child comes to Physical Education they can earn up to 25 points. In addition to the daily 25 points your child can earn, there may be written quizzes, small projects, skill evaluation, and self evaluation. If a student forgets their gym clothes they will lose 5 points but will be given a written assignment which will be worth 20 points. That assignment will be done during their class time. It will be graded and these points will be given to your child for that day.
