The objective of the FCHS Physical Education Department is to enhance physical fitness and wellness through participation in lifetime activities that promote the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of each student.
Uniforms:
• All students are required to wear a FCHS PE uniform. The PE uniform consists of a t-shirt, shorts & athletic shoes (flat, closed toe, no heels). If a student does not want to wear the shorts, they may purchase sweatpants from the PE department (FCHS sweatpants). Students may wear their own jacket or sweatshirt over their PE t-shirt during cold days. There are no exceptions or substitutions for the PE uniform.
• Uniforms may be purchased the first week of school during Health/PE/Driver's Education classes.
• Please make all checks payable to FCHS or bring exact change if paying by cash (see packages and prices listed on page attached)
Lockers:
• All students must bring in their own lock to use on the lockers in the locker room.
• There are enough lockers for each student to have their own; no one should share a locker with their friend.
• Long lockers may be used during PE classes only. No locks should remain on the long lockers overnight or they will be removed and items will be placed in the "lost and found". Any locks left on long lockers after 2:05 pm will be cut off.
• STUDENTS ARE NOT TO BRING A CELL PHONE OR iPOD INTO THE GYM OR LOCKER ROOM.
Grades:
• Each physical education activity unit will be graded as follows:
• Daily 40%: Preparedness, promptness, daily participation, homework
• Fitness 40%: Strength, flexibility, cardiovascular endurance activities
• Skills 10%: Skills test performance (based on critical elements taught in units)
• Written 10%: Cognitive assessment, quarterly unit test
Final grades are determined using a cumulative average of all four quarters
including Physical Education, Health and Driver's Education classes.
