A student must earn a total of 2.0 credits in PE in order to graduate.  Credits can be earned by taking a PE class (0.5 credits per semester), taking a Wilderness Challenge class (0.5 credits per year), or participating in an athletic or cheer team (max 0.5 credits per year, regardless of how many seasons).  If credit has not been earned in one of the previous ways, an annual 0.5 credit for athletic participation for sports outside of VC can be awarded on a case-by-case basis, at the discretion of the principal.  Students must apply for this credit during the relevant academic school year.
