Behavior
All school rules stated in the student handbook will apply. Tardies result in detention after the third
instance. Make sure there is no gum, food, drink (water is fine), electronic devices, or hats in my class. Give
everyone the respect that all human beings deserve. Failure to bring paper and a writing utensil is failure to
prepare for class, and is a violation. If any violation occurs, the following steps will be taken.
***There are no WARNINGS. The warning is written here and being read aloud to students. Follow rules.
*Swearing or cheating is an instant referral!!!!
offense- Detention, written behavior correction plan
2nd offense- Administrative Referral

Subsequent Violations- Referral
Grading
Grading is done on a percentage basis. This insures that equal weight is placed on all coursework, and
not simply the assignments with a high point value.
90-100

Semester grades will be divided as 40% for the first quarter, 40% for the second quarter, and 20% for the final
test. Grades do not start over after the quarter. PHS is dedicated to incorporating the Arizona Common Core
Standards into the curriculum and increasing the rigor of our instruction.
Homework
Students can expect homework three times per week. No late work is accepted, unless there is an
excused absence. The student will then have the corresponding number of days to turn in the missed work. The
homework is concentrated in the area of studying, as busy work is not relevant. Students will have assignments
to read, ideas to interpret, and must come up with questions of their own. I like to challenge the intellect, and
not simply give X number of hours of homework.
Description:
This full year class is an introduction to the profession of Sports Medicine. Topics being covered include, but
not limited to, human anatomy, sports injuries, medical emergencies, nutrition, and sports psychology. There is
a $20 class fee that is required for this course, please pay this fee in the bookstore as soon as possible.
Athletic Training Room General Policies and Procedures: (for both student aides and athletes)
1. Absolutely no horseplay or foul language.
2. Patient Confidentiality is a MUST!
3. NO CLEATS (shoes) ON TABLES – Respect the property
4. Keep the room clean and organized

6. ONLY student athletes who are receiving treatment/tapings and student aides allowed in the
room.
7. All athletes MUST sign in prior to ANY treatment/taping done
