However, if your child needs to be excused for more than one week, a doctor’s note is required. This note should should include the duration and reason. Children excused from gym are also excused from recess. A note from the doctor allowing your child to return to physical education class is also required.

While I aim to provide your child with the means and the knowledge to achieve a healthy lifestyle, you are the most influential component to your child becoming a healthy individual for his/her lifetime.
