Beginning July 1, 2009, school districts must ensure that physically able pupils in grades seven through twelve shall engage in physical activity for a minimum of 120 minutes per week in which there are at least five school days of school.

The school will work with 7-12th grade students to develop a written agreement that will list the types of physical activity and duration of these activities during the school year. The written physical activity agreement must meet the requirements.

In Advisory, all students will be given a form that will need to be completed and signed by the student, parent, and school staff. Students will need to return the signed form this week in the West Wing Office, the Main Office or the Guidance Office.
