We are looking forward to providing your child with an exciting and rewarding physical education program. At MSA-West, we are concerned about your child’s safety, and for that reason we ask that they wear athletic or running-type shoes. Shoes with heels, boots, or sandals make it difficult for children to participate safely. We strongly encourage students to wear socks with their shoes, and we also ask that girls who choose to wear dresses or skirts should wear shorts underneath their clothing.

Every child is expected to participate to the best of their ability each day they attend class. There are days, however, when illness or injury may inhibit your child’s ability to participate. If this is the case, please send a note with your child with a brief description regarding the nature of the restriction.  If the condition restricts activity for more than 5 consecutive days, a doctor’s note will be required. If you have any questions or concerns you can contact Jennie Graves at jenniegraves@ipsb.education or Sidney Washington at sidneywashington@ipsb.education .
