Wednesday, May 3 and Thursday, May 4 will be the last two days of our 2nd semester swim unit. Students will be taking their 15 minute swim tests during these two days to finish out this unit. Grades for the 15 minute swim test and the swim unit itself will be posted on Student/Parent Connect by the beginning of next week and these grades will be reflected in the 5th card marking report cards.

Swim Unit
The Swim Unit will begin immediately after Health on December 5 and will run all the way through December 23. Students are expected to have a swimsuit and towel on a daily basis. Goggles are optional but do help to limit eye irritation from the chlorine. I recommend that students bring some type of body wash to help take the chlorine off when they shower after swimming.
Health Unit
Our first semester Health Unit has begun and will run through Friday, December 2. Topics to be covered are: nutrition and the dangers of drugs, alcohol and tobacco.
