PE Waivers
• Students who maintain full-time student status (defined as a daily course schedule with 7/8 classes per semester) during all four years of high school and meet all other graduation requirements may waive an initial .5 physical education credit by successfully completing the following criteria: – Two (2) St. Vrain Valley School District athletic programs at the varsity or junior varsity
level (two different sports; same sport two seasons); or – 72 hours during one semester of an appropriate, pre-approved, structured, and
supervised activity outside of the school district. • Students with an advanced course schedule, including enrollment in multiple
academically rigorous courses, may also request .5 physical education credit waiver when combined with one of the above criteria.
See SVVSD Board Policy IKF-R for more details
PE Waivers are only for students who, due to a rigorous academic course load, can not fit a PE course into their schedule. A maximum of 2 of the 4 PE courses required for graduation can be waived when specific criteria are met. The credit from those courses are not waived, just the requirements. 24.5 or more credits are still required for graduation when a PE Waiver is approved.
