AWARE Rules

The 12 major Rules Every student is expected to dress and participate every day. If a student is injured, participation may include, but is not limited to, such activities as walking and stretching.

Rule 1 Parent notes are good for two days, and then the student will need a doctor’s note if further time is needed for injury or illness. Students will still be required to dress in their AWARE (PE) uniforms on these days. If a student cannot participate in AWARE for a significant amount of time, his/her guidance counselor will work with the family on the most appropriate class placement for the grading period.

Rule 2 If a gym suit is lost, another suit will need to be purchased as soon as possible. Ripped or torn uniforms must be repaired in a reasonable amount of time or be counted as a missed dress. The AWARE dept. will be phasing out the red and white uniforms this year. The new uniforms will be black and charcoal. We will use all of the red and white uniforms before issuing newer uniforms in that size. Appropriate sizes will be determined by the AWARE teacher. Shirts and shorts are $10.00 each = ($20.00 total) Students will be allowed to wear the former red and white gym suits as long as they are students at CGMSC. If a gym lock is lost, the replacement cost is $5.50. Under no circumstance should you give your locker combination to anyone.

Rule 3 For safety reasons, jewelry including, but not limited to, watches, rings on the fingers, toe rings, earrings, bracelets, watches, nose rings, tongue rings, necklaces and any facial piercing may not be worn in AWARE class. Wearing such items can be counted as a missed dress.

Rule 4 5. The following regulations are part of the requirements for physical education, girls and boys – red/black school trunks, gray/dark grey school shirt, socks, gym shoes (no “skater” shoes, no soccer/cleated type shoes).

Rule 5 Missed Dress – Includes the following violations: wearing jewelry, torn clothing, chewing gum, or eating candy. These violations will result in 3 points being deducted from a student’s participation grade for that activity.

Rule 6 7. No Dress – Includes the following violations: no shoes, improper shoes, no PE shorts or shirt. These violations will result in 6 points being deducted from a student’s responsibility grade and the student will receive a 0 for participation in that activity. For the first two no dresses in a semester, a student will be required to fill out a class observation sheet. If it is not filled out correctly, if not it will be considered insubordination and will result in ISS the following day. Receiving a No Dress in AWARE on any given day eliminates a student from participating in athletes after school that day.

Rule 7 Tardiness – Three points will be deducted from the participation grade for each tardy. For the third and fourth tardies per semester, the student will receive a discipline notice and a lunch detention. A fifth tardy results in a discipline notice and office referral.

Rule 8 Shirts must be tucked in until a student arrives in the locker room.

Rule 9 Gym shoes must have laces pulled and tied tightly. No slip-ons, heel-less shoes, sandals, skate-boarding shoes, or any hard sole shoes/boots are allowed.

Rule 10 No aerosol hairspray or aerosol deodorant is allowed.

Rule 11 No glass containers are allowed in the locker rooms at any time.

Rule 12 IPADS or any other type of tablets will not be permitted out while in locker room, waiting for dismissal at the end of the day, or end of class.
