No, you cannot take it as an 8th class.  You can take it as a "9th period" class but it is discouraged.  Just take it over the summer next year.  It doesn't have to be during or before 9th grade, it can be later.[/quote]

You sure? You can take HPE 10 in the summer before 11th grade? [/quote]

This summer (2024) , I asked TJ counselor if my kid could take PE (for 9 grade) next summer so the kid had space for other elective class and they said No.[/quote]

I know TJ is special, but my Oakton kid took Online PE 9 after 9th grade and PE 10 after 10th grade.  I'm not quite sure what would stop you from doing this. you sign up for it yourself online. I once met a kid taking PE 10 as a senior (in person). [/quote]

Since the school counselor said no in the summer, we followed their advice and did not sign up for it.  But thanks much for the info![/quote]

I think the issue is you cannot take PE 9 AFTER 9th grade but yes it can - and typically is at TJ -  be taken the summer before 9th. [/quote]

My kid actually took PE 9 in the summer AFTER 10th grade in FCPS. It was not a problem. Why would anyone care as long as the requirement is met?[/quote]

At TJ they were allowed to do it? I could see TJ being stricter because it is already a crush to get in all the classes you need there given the extra ones they require. [/quote]
TJ does not allow postponing PE to the summer. If a student hasn't completed PE 9 during the previous summer, they will be enrolled in PE 9 during their freshman year.[/quote]
