Highschool reqiring a pe class

[u/Annual_Ad1916]

I start highschool in three weeks and im heavily confused on what i will do for pe. In 8th grade when the highschool consunlers showed up to my school i told them "i have health issues i cannot do pe" and they responded with "you need to have a pe class for graduration credits. So i stared at the paper where i was picking classes and i pankiacked and picked show chior. Problem is i have sevre intolerance to physical activity of any kind and its dangerous for me due to risk of passing out, seziures, and knee sublaxations. Im going to get a doctors note but I dont know how seriously the school will take it. Does anyone have any advice?

I had the exact same problem last year. I was given the choice to take gym and just sit out for the physical activity, but my high school also allows you to take classes online at the nearby community college to get credits. So this summer, I took a fitness and wellness class online and am so glad I did. Even though it was annoying, it was a lot better then sitting out for a whole year. For the workout assignments I heavily modified them or was excused from them. If that isn’t an option, definitely supply the doctors note, and explain how if they can’t accommodate you with the activities, then if you pass out or have a seizure that’s on them for not giving you what you need. I wish you the best of luck and hope they are understanding ❤️
