 GRADING:   Semester Grade = 45% - 1^st 9 Weeks, 45% - 2^nd 9 Weeks & 10% semester final.

                         Your 9 Weeks grade in Weight Training is composed of two elements:

                        A.     Participation:  60% of 9 Weeks grade.  Participation is most important in this class.

All students start out with 50 points for participation at the beginning of the

9 weeks.  Points will be deducted for the following reasons:

1.     All students must participate in activity of the day.  Failure to do this… -2 point

2.     Students are allowed 2 absences for any reason each 9 weeks.  After the 2^nd absence,

      1 point will be deducted for each absence.  After the 4^th absence, 2 points will be

      deducted for each absence.

5.     Remove all jewelry. (Rings, watches, earrings, necklaces, etc.)  -1 point

6.     If you are asthmatic and use an inhaler, bring it to class or no participation.  –2 points

Students must dress out daily, unless instructed to do otherwise.  A WRITTEN EXCUSE

FROM YOUR FAMILY PHYSICIAN IS THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE EXCUSE FOR THIS CLASS.

NOTE:  If a student is a non-participant for 15 days during the semester due to illness or

             injury, they will have to withdraw from the class.

B.    Tests, and physical testing:  40% of 9 Weeks grade.

                                 Sit-ups in 1 min., Vertical Jump

MAKEUP WORK:  If a test or written assignment is missed due to an absence, it is the

   STUDENTS responsibility to make arrangements to make up the work.  If

   the work is not made up, a ZERO will be given for the missing assignments.

         during a test or any other assignment will result in a grade of ZERO

         for that assignment.

      participation points (-2).  Written work must be made up and

      will be reduced to 50% of the total.

                                             be affected by Weights class.  If student was seen by a physician,

                                             the student will not be allowed to participate until a signed release
