FrogMom5 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 A friend just told me that FL has changed the P.E. requirement to graduate from high school. She said that students now have to meet the P.E. requirements for HOPE - P.E. must be taught by 2 outside teachers and specific requirements must be included. She said it affects current 9th graders. Have any of you heard this? I tried to look it up on the FPEA website but didn't see anything about it there. Is my friend misunderstanding something or is this correct info.?

Sasharowan Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I haven't heard anything about it, but FL doesn't have any specific requirements for home school anyway. Just show improvement commensurate with level by either testing or portfolio review by certified teacher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachnut Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I haven't heard of any such change either. My DS will be in 9th grade next year, so I plan to follow whatever FL requires for public school high school students. Regarding PE, students should earn 1 credit of PE, which should include .5 credit of PE and .5 credit of Personal Fitness. I'm not quite sure what the difference is between PE and Personal Fitness, so I plan to research this on the FLDOE website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
