I hate the fact that "grades" are assigned to P.E. classes. I think they are simply to sujective for grades.

When I was a freshman in high school, I had the unfortunate experience of getting my P.E. grade changed to a D minus, from a C, because the instructor noticed me "slacking" during sit-up exercises.

Problem: I had (and still have) a pretty bad adhesion due to an unneeded operation to remove my appendix. Many years later, the operation was described by a physician as being "botched up". It still causes me a little bit of trouble, not serious though.

But, a D minus?

At least she got a C!

Just being "the best runner" doesn't earn you a PE "A." I believe, students are also graded on attitude and "suiting up." She may be a great runner, but I'll bet that she's learned her "I don't have to follow rules" attitude from her dad.

She might earn an "A" in being a "b."

I don't know about that. When I was in high-school, we were graded according to our performance in the Cooper Test (running as far as possible in 12 minutes). Of course, fatso and the nerds got low grades.... man, what kids need is a more Spartan P.E. system.
