Clayton High – Independent Study: Personal Fitness

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

An independent study course is not a regularly scheduled class, but instead, is arranged, planned, and managed by a supervising teacher. Students considered for this class are juniors or seniors who do not have room in their schedule for a PE class that meets in person. Students enrolled in this class will attend a mandatory, introductory meeting at the beginning of the semester, and will work independently and on their own time. In Independent Study: Personal Fitness, students will develop and maintain a Personal Fitness Portfolio that includes a detailed log of the activities being done throughout the semester. Students will participate in a variety of physical activities in order to maintain and improve their current fitness levels and will be encouraged to select and participate in physical activities that meet the need for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, and/or social interaction. Students are required to secure department approval for enrollment. (This course does not qualify for NCAA eligibility.)
