Physical Education (PE)

Students are required to complete 225 hours of P.E. to graduate from TCS. Students are expected to complete the majority of the hours outside of TCS. P.E. activities must be pre-approved and tied to the state standards in P.E. There is a contract on the wall by the counselor's office that needs to be completed in order to log and submit P.E. hours. A reliable adult involved in the activity must sign off to verify the hours completed. Completed contracts should be submitted to the main office as soon as they are completed rather than waiting until the last semester of the senior year. The hours will be logged and a .5 credit will be given to every 75 hours completed. Keep a copy of your contract - while we are very efficient and organized - you never know!!!!

Examples of P.E. activities that students have done in the past include yoga, martial arts, running, horseback riding, fencing, gymnastics and dance.

TCS offers some opportunities to meet the P.E. requirements. During workshops, we have offered yoga, dance and running opportunities. Some students join ski club or our Ultimate Frisbee and soccer teams. Students have also joined fitness centers and worked with a trainer to get in shape. The P.E. activity must have goals and students must write a reflection on whether or not they achieved those goals.

If you need more information on getting P.E. hours, don't hesitate to ask!

 

Community Service Learning Hours

Students must complete 60 hours of community service learning hours. There is a form to fill out located on the wall by the counselor. Service learning activities must be pre-approved by a staff member. There are questions on the back of the form that must be completed in order to have the service learning hours logged. Turn in completed forms to the front desk. And remember to keep a copy!
