PE Class:
PE is all about effort! Do your personal best everyday while working to improve your personal fitness and sports skills. Have a good attitude even if you feel you are “not athletic” or you don’t like the particular sport we are focused on for the week.
MATERIALS:
*Pepper Drive PE uniform or black athletic shorts (see note below) and a plain grey t-shirt to be kept in your PE locker.
New students will be given a PE uniform. Returning students who need to replace a lost, damaged, or outgrown Pepper Drive PE uniform may purchase a new one:
$5 shirt, $10 shorts. Students may wear an older sibling's outgrown or no longer needed uniform if it is in good condition.
No markings other than name (last, name, first initial) are allowed on PE uniform. No spandex shorts, please! Basketball type shorts only.
*Closed-toe/ closed-heel, athletic shoes in good condition.
Better to have a pair to leave in your locker. CROCS are not appropriate PE shoes! Earn a "nonsuit" each time you choose to wear CROCS for PE.
*Stick deodorant
*Proper undergarments at all times!
Optional materials to be kept in your PE locker:
*Stick sunscreen *Sports headband, pony-tail holders, hair clips to keep hair and sweat out of your face
*Any color sweatshirt and/or sweatpants/leggings/athletic pants for cold days.
Sweatpants/leggings/athletic pants are to remain in your locker for the week.
Please wear your PE shorts OVER sweatpants/leggings/athletic pants.
*A school appropriate baseball cap for sun protection.
**Sunglasses are not permitted at PE**
LOCKER ROOM POLICIES:
You will be assigned a lock and a locker for your PE clothes.
The PDMS locker room motto is:
KEEP YOURSELF TO YOURSELF while you GET IN, GET DRESSED, GET OUT!
"Ain't your body! Ain't your business!"
It is your responsibility to keep track of your lock. Replacement cost for a lost lock is $8.00.
Clothing left on the floor or benches or in an unlocked locker will be placed in the PE lost & found and your grade will be docked 2 points for not following directions.
Please use sprays outside only. NO glass bottles, please!
Excessive shouting, screaming, squealing, etc. will not be tolerated. You will lose points for not following directions if you choose to be loud in the locker room.
T.I.G.E.R. locker room expectations are clearly posted in the locker room. Please review them regularly and behave accordingly.
Your teachers do not want to stand at the locker room door during change times, but we will if we have to.

1) Dress (you have 5 minutes to get in, get dressed, get out)
2) Roll-call and announcements Water bottles are to be placed on the bleachers before going to roll call
