Physical Education
Welcome to SEMS Physical Education. Let's get moving, learn sportsmanship, and build healthy habits.
Course Information

Clear or Mesh gym bags are required if you are not putting your clothes in your main bookbag!
Contact & Communication

Classroom Expectations
Tennis shoes must be worn for PE. If a student does not have tennis shoes, they will not earn dress out points for that day. Hey Dudes and other slide-on shoes are NOT allowed.
Students MUST have a water bottle for class that is filled with water only prior to coming to the gym; no sharing allowed.
Hair longer than shoulder length (girls or boys) must be pulled back.
No large jewelry is allowed; watches and small earrings are acceptable. Chains, rings and bracelets should be removed as they may hinder exercises and create a risk for injury.
No food, gum, candy, drinks, aerosol spray or perfumes/sprays are allowed in the gym, locker rooms, or weight room.
RESPECT all teachers and classmates at all times; no fighting, profanity or trash talking.
If a student is not allowed to participate in class for any reason, written work or a fitness walk will be assigned for that day.
A note from parents/guardians will only excuse a student from participation for two days per nine weeks. If more than two days will be missed, the student will need a doctor’s excuse.
Dressing Out
Every student is REQUIRED to dress out. School uniforms may get damaged, dirty and definitely sweaty during PE.

Grading & Google Classroom
Grades will be updated weekly and are based on:

- 50% on tests (tests will be administered in Google classroom and/or technique based).
Google Classroom: Each class has its own Google Classroom. Students are responsible for any class work or study guides posted. Teachers will announce test days in advance.
Late/Make Up Work
Grades are updated by Tuesday of every week.
You have 3 school days from the time you return to make up missed work. After that time, any missing assignments will be accepted with a late penalty.
