Every student at Tevis is required to take year-long classes in Reading/ English, Mathematics, History, and Physical Education, in both the seventh and eighth grades. In addition, a full year of Science is required in the 7th grade, and one semester each of Science and Computer Science is required in the 8th grade. This allows all students to take two elective courses during each school year, except students who have chosen year long electives, such as band and orchestra. Instrumental music students may take zero period PE in order to increase their elective choices. Zero period PE is offered from 7:30 to 8:10 am each day before the regular school day begins. Transportation to school for zero period PE students must be provided by the parents.
