Physical Education Uniform Policy
The Physical Education uniform includes the following:
- 6th grade (MMS black PE shirt) 7th and 8th grade ( MMS gray PE shirt)
- MMS red PE shorts
-Socks
-Gym shoes- criss-cross laced
All uniforms should be clean and tucked in when students come to class. Jewelry should be kept in their locker during class.
As a department we expect that all students will dress for PE on a daily basis. If a student does not come prepared with the proper PE uniform, point deductions will affect his/her grade. Students that do not have their gym suit may rent one for 50 cents.

This will give the students an opportunity to participate in units they have an interest in and furthering their education/experience.
Parent Notes/Absence From Class
~A parent note may excuse a student from Physical Education up to three days, but missed days need to be made up with the at home make-up sheet. When injuries or illness extends beyond three days, a doctor’s note is required.
~ Any student not participating in class earns no credit for those days. Make-up forms are available in the locker room or on the school web site for those students wishing to make up their missed days.
Medical (Doctor's Note)
~ When injuries or illness extends beyond three days, a doctor’s note is required.
~ Student should bring the doctor's note to their PE teacher. Physicians should be as specific as possible with instructions if modifications are needed.
~ If note specifies the student is out of PE, students will not be allowed to return to PE class until the end date of the note.
~ Students will be given an alternate assessment to complete while they are out of class. It is the student's responsibility to complete this assignment and turn it back in to their PE teacher.
