Physical Education

St. Martin School offers a sequential, developmental, age-appropriate physical education program designed to provide students with the knowledge and ability to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.  Students learn that their fitness has a direct bearing on their physical, mental, and social well-being through the structured physical education program.  This encourages a lifelong commitment to the pleasure and health benefits of physical activity.

Schedule for 2007-2008 School Year:

Rules:

• P.E. uniform must be worn every P.E. day.  Only St. Martin P.E. sweats are allowed.  Shoes must have laces and socks must be correct size according to school handbook guidelines.  If a student is out of uniform in any way, he/she will not participate that day and will be given a NP (non-participation).   Students not participating in class will walk the field the entire period (weather permitting).
• If a student is sick or hurt and is unable to participate in P.E., he/she must bring a signed not from the doctor or parent saying so.
• If a student does not participate in P.E.  without an excuse on any given day, he/she will be given a NP.
• Being that the P.E. time has been shortened to only 35 minutes, students will be expected to have used the restroom before class.
• A student's P.E. grade is given for effort, sportsmanship, ability to work with others, and following directions.
• Four NP (non-participations) in a quarter will result in a NP on the report card.
