Middle school students participate in PE for one class period per day. The physical education requirement shall be waived for a student who meets one of the following criteria:
- The student is enrolled or required to enroll in a remedial course.
- The student’s parent indicates in writing to the school that:
- The parent requests that the student enroll in another course from among those offered as options by the school (courses are subject to availability at each school)
OR
- The student is participating in physical activities outside the school day (excluding school programs) which are equal to or in excess of the mandated requirement.
Your child must meet one of the waiver criteria listed above or he/she will be enrolled in physical education each year while in grades 6 through 8.
It is important to note, you may NOT request a waiver after the student’s schedule has been completed.
