Odessa Kilpatrick Elementary Physical Education Coach Brown, Coach D’Andrea & Coach Ingvoldstad
PE Dress Code In accordance with the Katy ISD dress code as well as the elementary handbook, the following information does apply. For the safety and comfort of your child in PE, please have your child wear OR bring athletic shoes with a rubber sole, closed toe and full support around the heel. Flip flops, boots, open toed sandals, dress shoes, cleats, heelys and shoes with a strap across the back are hazardous and therefore not permissible. Girls must wear shorts under their dresses for various activities as well. Long dresses and skirts are not recommended for PE days as they could hinder movement. Your child’s safety is a priority and we know you will help us, help them make safe shoe choices for PE in order to enjoy it to the best of their ability.
In Physical Education, we want to have fun while staying safe at the same time!
These shoes were made for RUNNING… And that’s just what they’ll do… Tie Shoes Elastic Shoes
One of these days these shoes are gonna score a goal for you!!! Elastic Shoes Velcro Shoes
They’ll trip you up all day… “Heelys”: for obvious reasons are not allowed for PE classes.
Hope you get the message then you won’t sit out from play!!! Some of the cutest shoes around…until the felt makes you slip and fall. So, make sure you check the soles.
Questionable Shoes??? Skinny Band Shoes We prefer these type of shoes not be worn for PE as there is a chance of the skinny straps breaking and the shoes becoming loose fitting, possibly falling off. As well, there is no protection for the top of the foot. Mary Janes Even though the shoes meet most requirements, the protection on top of the foot is not as substantial and the buckle could cause injury.
TEKS 4.5, 4.5B and 3.5, 3.5B: Select and use proper attire that promotes participation and prevents injury. TEKS 1.5 and 1.5B: Describe the importance of protective equipment in preventing injury such as helmets, elbow/knee pads, wrist guards, proper shoes and clothing. TEKS K.5 and K.5B: Explain how proper shoes and clothing promote safe play and prevent injury.
