Mondays. Uniform checks will be conducted routinely on Mondays. Soiled

uniforms will result in a loss of points. If a student forgets his/her P.E.

clothes, loaners are available from Rita, our locker room attendant, three loaners per semester. Each students name must be clearly marked with permanent marker in the following way year round :

- Whitney H.S. T-shirt: First name only

- Whitney H.S. shorts: Last name only

- Tied athletic shoes with no platform heels

- White or black socks

-

OPTIONAL; Black, grey or white sweats may be worn under uniform in cold

weather (under 70 F)

 

 

Each student is to play fair, demonstrate good sportsmanship, have a

positive attitude, and refrain from put-downs or foul language. Please respect the

rights and individuality of each person in your class. A safe, quiet,

positive learning environment is of utmost importance. Any student losing points

for improper citizenship more than three times in any given semester will

receive an unsatisfactory grade.

 

LOCKS AND LOCKERS

 

Students are encouraged not to share their locker combinations with anyone

else! If a stuent forgets his/her combination see Rita, she has a record of all locks,

lockers and a master key. It is each students responsibility to keep all their

belongings locked up in a long locker during class time. If you leave your

stuff out and someone else tampers with it, you will both be given

consequences for not accepting your personal responsibility.

 

 

If a student is unable to participate in P.E. due to illness or injury, he/she

should bring a note from a parent. If you forget your note or your injury or

illness occurs after leaving home that day, it is your responsibility to

communicate your condition to your teacher during roll. You may bring your note the

very next day. Any student who cannot participate for more than three days

must bring a doctor’s note. The doctor’s note should be specific about what

activities are not allowed. Your teacher will modify your participation

accordingly. Students can receive two participation points; participation includes progressive improvement on

the daily run, stretches and calisthenics performed each day.

 

 

Students will be allowed up to three school business absences per quarter

without losing any points. If a student is absent for any other reason,

including excused legal absences they are required to make up the points lost .

Each student earns two points per day. For each tardy students will lose one

point. Students with a perfect point standing will receive rewards on

Fridays. Students who lose points and then make them up will be given make-up

credit toward their grade, but will have lost their perfect point standing for

rewards.
