PHYSICAL EDUCATION (GYM)
  • Gym classes will be held on Tuesday November 8th. Classes are moved because of the short week. Students are reminded to come in Full GYM UNIFORM ON TUESDAY. 8th Graders should bring gym clothes in a bag as they will have graduation pictures taken on Tuesday as well.
  • As always, now that report cards are coming up, I remind students that participation is a huge part of your grade for gym class. There are many students that are not participating in class activities and believe they should pass. NO PARTICIPATION MEANS NO EFFORT, NO EFFORT MEANS BAD GRADE for the day.

As always, if there are any questions about what we will be doing during the week, please feel free to email me @MrBonilla@olqmnyc.org

THANK YOU & HAVE A BLESSED DAY!!
