Dear Parents,

Welcome back!  The Physical Education staff at Sousa is excited to begin another action packed year with your children.  We would like to remind you at this time of the requirements for Physical Education. 

In order to participate in Physical Education your child needs to wear sneakers.  Many shoes may look like sneakers, but are not.  Look for the following features when purchasing sneakers for your child: 

·        Laces that tie or velcro ONLY  (no slip-on or zipper sneakers)

·        A closed heel and toe area

·        Supportive soles (no platforms or high heels)

·        No heelies

If we determine that your child’s sneakers are not safe for Physical  Education, he/she will not be able to participate that day.  In addition, your child should leave all jewelry at home and always wear comfortable clothing, i.e. shorts, t-shirts, sweats, leggings.

Please be aware that these guidelines are for the safety of your children.  Your support in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Doughty

Mr. Dooley
