Please check with your local branch to review options. Paul Ecke Branch - Encinitas Financial assistance may be available for families in need.
  • Slide 16
  • Look toward the future! College Admissions officers look for continued focus in a specific area (multiple years in the same discipline, i.e. Band/Orchestra) on High School transcripts. Participation in outside ensembles, may or may not be considered.
  • Slide 17
  • I.S.P.E. must be supervised by an Accredited coach or coaching organization with a $1Mil liability policy. State of California requires completion of 400* minutes of fitness every 10 days while enrolled in I.S.P.E. and school is in session. (Not required over Thanksgiving, Winter, or Spring Breaks.) I.S.P.E. logs are now on-line to make reporting easy. Note:Participation in Competitive Team Sports Does NOT meet the Independent Study Criteria. However, an Accredited Coach with adequate Liability Coverage can supervise an individual program for your child. Its up to you as to when this takes place. * Coach may assign homework to fulfill a portion of these hours. I.S.P.E. Requirements: Have to include all the official stuff here, sorry.

State Mandated PE requirements: Per statute, each student enrolled in any P.E. course must participate in 400 P.E. minutes every ten days.
