Physical Education: Good Morning, Falcon Parents...

Progress report grades will be finalized tomorrow.  We have talked with all classes, and will do so again today, about letting us know if they believe there is an error in their grade so that it can be corrected.  Do remember that progress report grades are a snap shot of one moment in the quarter and will already have changed by the time they are sent to parents.
Students who are doing poorly on the quizzes might want to consider using the practice quiz available each week.  This can be taken an unlimited number of times.  It shows students what they missed and what the correct answer should have been.  Students who take advantage of this do very well on the weekly quiz.
We would like to offer students the opportunity to earn up to 100 points of extra credit by participating in an event called Puppies and Poses.  This event will be held on Friday, December 8th at 6:30pm at the Barefoot Yoga Studio on Oracle Road.  Foster puppies will be loose on the floor playing with yogis while an instructor takes you through an hour long yoga practice!  The cost is $10 and 100% of the money raised goes to help the local puppy rescue, Lil Bit of Love.  Partcipants are also asked to bring a puppy toy to donate to a puppy in the rescue.  If this is something you are interested in doing, act soon!  Limited spots are available for the class.  I did this with my son last year and had a ball.  The only hard part is leaving without taking a puppy!  To sign up for the class, contact Barefoot Yoga at 797-2881.
Thank you for your continued support of your student(s) and our program!  Have a nice holiday weekend.
