Capistrano Unified School District has created a new process for the Independent PE application submission to make it easier for parents or guardians to track the application process.  The IPE class is run through the California Preparatory Academy, which is part of CUSD. This process makes it easier for the school and instructor to view completed applications and set up the online class. 
Parents or guardians, please complete this form with your student.   There is a workflow to this process that will be as follows:

1.  Students initiate the form using their CUSD email address.  Students will complete the following:
              Student’s Name 
              Student CUSD ID Number
              Telephone Numbers (students and parents)
               Address
               School they will be attending for IPE
  Once the basic information is completed and the student signs the contract, they will move to the next step, which is to forward the form to their parent (this is done within the form).   
2.  Parents or guardians will receive an email from Infomed K-12, which will take them back to the form to complete the following sections:
               Sport
               Name of Coach/Instructor
               Group/Club Affiliation
                a. Evidence of Achievement: Please attach to this document a statement on official letterhead identifying the classification levels of the governing body and where the student ranks within those levels (see Exhibit A).
                b. Statement of Reason(s) for Requesting Independent Study – Physical Education:
                c. Please list a minimum of three mid-year goals that are aligned with the California Physical Education Standards 
                d. Please list a minimum of three year-end goals that are aligned with the California Physical Education Standards 
                Statement or list of daily activities by which the student will achieve the mid-year and year-end goals:
 
The parents or guardians will then sign the contract and consent to share this information with their coach or instructor.   The parent will then forward this to their coach or instructor.  A valid email address is needed.  Please communicate with the coach or instructor that they will receive an email from Informed K-12. 
 
3.  The coach or instructor will receive an email from Informed K-12. The coach will verify that the information is correct and sign the contract. They will next select the school from a drop-down menu that the student attends.   The school will be on the application, but it is recommended that the parent communicate with the coach or instructor which school the athlete will receive IPE.  
 
4.  The school Assistant Principal will receive the documentation and review it for approval.
