I am looking forward to your child’s participation in my physical education program.  Livonia Public Schools physical education curriculum emphasizes a well-rounded sequence of development.  It encourages and promotes growth in the physical, mental, social and emotional health of each child.  We will be using the exemplary health and physical education program provided by the district.

Family 1, 2 and 3 classes will have Physical Education once a week for 50 minutes and RISE students will be in class for 45 minutes.  In order for students to gain the most benefit from this program and to ensure their safety, We are asking that your child follow these rules:

1. Gym shoes must be worn at all times during physical education class.
2. Clothing should be worn which allows for freedom of movement and is appropriate for play.
3. Be respectful, responsible and safe.
4. Have fun.

 Students will be evaluated in the following areas:

• Fundamental Skills – motor skills, fitness skills, and object control skills
• Participation – demonstrate best effort individually, with partners and in groups
• Behavior – listens, follows directions and behaves appropriately

Please provide me with any medical issues/information based on periodic medical examinations to avoid unnecessary risks while participating in physical education class.

 I am looking forward to working with your child and supporting him/her in achieving a lifetime of fun and fitness.  Feel free to contact me at Webster should you have any questions or concerns.
