• The PE uniform is required for all grade levels. Each freshman will receive a PE uniform (one t-shirt and one pair of shorts) and one high-security lock during the first week of PE class. The freshman uniform and lock is included in school fees. Transfer students may pick up a uniform and lock from the physical education office. Additional and replacement uniforms are sold during school hours in the PE Office (G108). The cost of the PE uniform is $20 ($10 for the t-shirt and $10 for the shorts). For more information on uniforms, call the PE Office at 847-424-7270.
• Gym shoes – Students enrolled in PE classes will need athletic gym shoes in order to participate each day. Many families choose to purchase an inexpensive pair of gym shoes that can be left in the student’s PE locker. 
• Swimsuit – Freshmen/sophomore students will have a swimming unit in PE at some point during the school year. Students in other grade levels may also have a fitness or sports aquatic unit that requires a swimsuit. Students may purchase a swimsuit from ETHS or from a store of their choice. Girls must wear a one-piece swimsuit in a dark color (blue or black), and boys must have swim trunks. Towels will be supplied but students are encouraged to bring their own.
