Grade and Expectations in PE class.
Dear Parent/Guardian,
Welcome to a fun-filled year of Physical Education! We are especially excited about the Physical Education Program because of the great variety of activities that will be offered to your child this year. We hope every child can have an active, enjoyable, and successful Physical Education experience; one where action, learning, and fun are emphasized rather than winning.
The following information describes how the Physical Education grades will be earned, and in addition, are the rules and consequences that the students are expected to adhere by according to the school-parent-student compact.
MY PE GRADE:
The grade earned in Physical Education class at Paradise Honors Elementary School is based on participation, behavior and assessments according to the Arizona State PE Standards. 60% of your child’s grade is based upon demonstration of skills and assessments of the PE standards, and the other 40% of their grade is based upon a participation and effort rubric (see below).

PROPER DRESS: Proper dress for P.E. is as follows: tennis shoes and comfortable clothing, which does not restrict participation. Dresses for girls are not allowed unless proper shorts are worn underneath. Sandals, flats, heels, boots, and untied shoes are not a proper shoe for P.E. This would fall under the preparation part of the participation rubric.
ABSENCES: Includes medical and non-medical excuses. Absences can be made up by a student who brings in a signed note or an email from a parent/guardian explaining the physical activity. This must be done prior to the start of the next marking period. For example, an absence can be made up by the student by taking a 25-minute walk with their parent(s). If an absence is not made up, the student will lose 2 points of that day’s grade. Also see coach’s websites for alternative assignments.
RULES: R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
Consequences:
1.Verbal Warning- Reminder of the rules
2.Time Out- Sit out of activity and reflection of behavior
3.Notify parents- of behavior and loss of all participation points for that class
