TRAINING ROOM
All athletes must follow all training room guidelines. Athletes not in their season of sport may not use the training room during 7th period. Athletes may not "hang out" in or by the training room unless being treated. Once the trainer is finished treating the athlete, the athlete must return to his/her coach.
ATTENDANCE
Athletes must check in with the teacher of record prior to going to practice. Athletes who fail to check in will be marked absent and have to serve detention hours. Instructors will not sign pink slips to clear these "absences".
OFF-LIMITS
Students must remain between the gym and the locker room doors after dressing out for class, before the instructors leave the locker rooms, and after class before the passing bell rings.
Athletes need to remain with their coaches the entire period. Athletes not with their coaches will:
- 1st offense: not be allowed to return to 7th period practice that day. Notify Coach.
- 2nd offense: not be allowed to return to 7th period practice for one week
- 3rd offense: removed from practicing with their teams during 7th period
Students going to the trainer during 7th must have a pass from the coach.
No 7th period PE student may go to the library during the period.
ABSENCE/MAKE-UP POLICY
P.E. is a class that is participation oriented therefore consistent attendance is important and does affect a student's grade. Absences due to "pre-arranged" school activities and athletic events do not count against a student's attendance. Athletes, during their season of sport, will not have to make-up 7th period absences unless the absence is a truant. Athletes in 7th period PE who are not in their season of sport will have to make up all absences.
Make-up days will be provided during lunch for those wishing to make up absences. Excused absences can be made up throughout the semester but no more than 2 per week. Those wishing to make-up an absence must schedule the make-up time with the instructor. It is the student's responsibility to contact the instructor.
ATHLETES - GAME DAY
Other than for special circumstances and previous arrangements, athletes are still required to participate on game day.
TARDIES
Athletes must check in with the instructor within 5 minutes of the late bell. Tardies can adversely affect grade. The locker room will be locked 8 min utes after the late bell and not opened again until the end of the period.

GRADING/DAILY POINTS
Students in 7th period PE must maintain a B- or above in the class in order to remain in 7th period PE.
Each student begins each grading period with 100 points. For every day a student does not participate or dress out, 5 points are deducted from his/her grade. Non-dress/non-participation days may not be made up. Each student is allowed 3 "free" days per grading period. These days are given for students to use when they are not feeling well
