Course Description:

& The weight training program at Queen Creek High School is designed to help students with strength building and conditioning as a component of health-related fitness. A variety of free weights will be used and health and nutrition will be discussed. Students will learn a wide variety of exercises to work individual muscle groups and information to develop and effective workout plan. Students will also be taught correct technique for lifting and increasing muscular endurance. Students will also participate in cardiovascular fitness such as running, jump-roping, bleachers, etc. to promote endurance.

Grading System:

90% = Class Participation, dressing out, and attendance

10% = Lifting and Physical fitness Testing

Grading Scale:

90-100% = A

80-89% = B

70-79% = C

60-69% = D

0-59% = F

Classroom Management Plan: All students are required to participate and dress out on a daily basis. Failure to participate will result in a deduction of three points. Each no dress is a loss of 25 points each day. Students will be given two free non-dresses for the semester. After the fourth non-dress (This doesn’t count the two non-dress days) the student fails the semester and will be placed in a study hall with no credit given for the class. A poor attitude towards a teacher, classmate, or towards the class in general will result in deduction of points. Students will be able to makeup two of their no-dresses for half credit at the discretion of the teacher. If a student is not playing cooperatively, the student may be asked to sit down and points may be deducted from their grade.

Absences and Tardies: For each unexcused absence a deduction of five points will be taken from the student’s grade. (It’s hard to make up a day missed.) Unexcused absences cannot be made up. Everything you miss due to an illness or for other excused absences MUST be made up at the discretion of the teacher. Three unexcused tardies will also result in one unexcused absence

Course Consequences: “If student chooses to break a rule”.

First Offense: Warning/Conference with the Student. Written Documentation

Second Offense: Notification of Parents/Guardian Department/Teacher Consequence

Third Offense: Conference/Meeting with Parents/Guardian. Department/Teacher Consequence

Fourth Offense: Written Referral/Parent Contact
