Professionalism
Regular attendance
at every class is expected. During
classes, attendance will be taken at precisely when the bell rings. You are expected to be present and ready for
activity at this time. Walking out to
the field does not count as ready!
Because we may sometimes meet in the gym you must always bring appropriate footwear for inside and outside. Any absence will be recorded and you will lose 5 attendance points except in
unusually (and previously discussed) extenuating circumstances. Tardies will result in a reduction of
attendance points.
During classes we
expect you to dress and act in a way appropriate for a student in a public
school physical education class.
Because of the sport education approach there may be variations in your
dress depending on your responsibilities but professionalism is expected. Hats, gum, jeans and the like are out. If in doubt ask me! When teaching the Soccer Activity Class or
KVJSA Team you are to present yourself as a professional physical educator.
