Participation



If you are injured during class participation,
the injury needs to be reported to the
supervising teacher immediately.
A doctor’s note can excuse a student from
participation. We encourage parents to
request a modified participation note from
the doctor, as there are often safe activities
your child can participate in while injured.
Ex – With a broken hand a student can
safely ride an exercise bike or walk.
With a parent note students will still be
asked to dress down and perform modified
activities if the injury/illness permits.
