• CARLESTON ELEMENTARY PHYSICAL EDUCATION

    WELCOME

    Welcome to Carleston Elementary physical education!  We are looking forward to a great year with your student.  The goal of our program is to promote physical activity as an essential part of a healthy lifestyle, to help each student develop muscular and cardiovascular strength and endurance, to develop positive and appropriate social skills, and to teach a variety of sports, activities, and games.

     

    DRESS FOR SUCCESS

    Safety and participation are important for the success of our physical education program.  Please encourage and remind your student to wear socks and athletic type shoes that fasten or tie securely.  Sandals, crocs, slip on shoes, boots, or dress shoes make it difficult for your student to participate safely during PE. Girls should wear shorts under dresses or skirts. 

     

    MEDICAL INFORMATION

    Students are expected to participate fully in all activities unless there is a documented medical condition or limitation.  Long term limitations should be addressed with a note from a medical professional and sent to the nurse and the coaches.  A note for short term limitations, 1 – 3 days, may be turned in by the student to the coaches at the start of their class with the following information:

    student’s name, homeroom teacher, date, and date the student may return to full participation in PE activities (not to exceed three calendar days)

    PE excuse notes will apply to all PE activities and also apply to recess.  Any excused student will be expected to accompany their homeroom class to PE class.
