Dear Parent or Guardian,

The 2008 Legislature passed Senate Bill 610 which was signed into law by Governor Crist on June 2, 2008. It included changes in statute as it relates to physical education requirements for Florida students. Section 1003.455, Florida Statutes, states that the equivalent of one class period per day of physical education for one semester of each year is required for students enrolled in grades 6 through 8. The physical education requirement shall be waived for a student in grades 6-8 who meet one of the following criteria:

1. The student is enrolled or required to enroll in a remedial course.
2. The student’s parent indicates in writing to the school that:
a. The parent requests that the student enroll in another course from among those offered as options the school district OR
b. The student is participating in physical activities outside the school day which are equal to or in excess of the mandated requirement.

This statute requires each District to notify parents of the options available prior to scheduling a student in physical education. If your student is not currently enrolled in a PE course, you will be required to complete the form below so our school will be in compliance with Section 1003.455 in the Florida Statutes.

Please submit one form per student.

Thank you,

DMS Leadership Team
