Dear Parents/Guardians and Students,                 

It is my belief that the  physical education component of our student's education will enhance the overall wellness, growth and development of the students here in the Hartnett Middle School.

In keeping with the philosophy of preparing our students for success I have implemented the curriculum found on this web site.

Physical Education class will take place in the gym, fitness room, as well as outside on our fields here at the school.

All students in grades 6 and 7 will participate in physical education classes as they move through the rotational classes during the school year. Our 8th grade classes are now choosing to participate in quarter long classes of physical education.

Eighth Grade Students will be provided with a padlock and assigned their own locker. All eighth grade students will be given a reasonable amount of time to change their clothes for participation in the physical education class. It is suggested, but not mandatory, that eighth grade students take a shower after each class. The sixth and seventh grade students are not required to change for physical education.

Beginning in November of 2008 you can read and respond to my version of a Physical Education Newsletter. Its a BLOG.

I invite you all to visit my web BLOG which provides everyone with current information about the class and helpful links for parents.

 Sincerely,

Mr. Roy Liard
