Summer gym class meets grad requirements

Monroe Public Schools has a new program where high school students entering grades 9 through 12 can complete their physical education credits for graduation during the summer, and not have to take physical education classes during the regular school year. 

     “This satisfies the physical education credit needed to graduate from Monroe High School,” said Julie Everly, deputy superintendent, Monroe Public Schools.  “By taking phys ed in the summer, students can make room in their class schedules throughout the regular school year for other classes.

     “Many of our students are interested in additional schedule space for advanced placement, direct college and dual enrollment classes,” Mrs. Everly added.  “This also increases the time available for students to take more advanced MHS electives, apprenticeships and certification programs.”

     With more than 140 teacher-taught electives and more than 100 more on-line elective courses available during the class day, Monroe High School has a larger selection of electives than all other regional high schools.

     The summer learning opportunity will be offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays from June 27 through August 4 at Monroe High School.  The class will focus on lifetime wellness and recreation.  In-district transportation will be available and breakfast and lunch will be provided.  Cost of the class is $180 per student.  In-district scholarships also are available by calling 265-3100.

     While open primarily to Monroe High School students, the class also will be available to students from other districts, space permitting. 

     Because space is limited, early enrollment is suggested.
