Middle School Athletics

Academic Standard for Eligibility
 
Students must have a 2.0 with no failing grades throughout the season to be eligible to participate in inter-school competition.*  This eligibility will be determined by the school’s regular grading cycle or formal progress reports.  Review of each student’s academics will be done at a minimum of every other week during each season, monitored by the athletic director.  Students ineligible based upon the school’s regular grading cycle or formal progress reports will be placed on suspension from competition for one week.  If at the end of one (1) week, a formal progress report for the student reflects that he/she is meeting the requirements, he/she may then be reinstated for competition. Only one progress report will be allowed per week.  If the student does not meet the requirements, he/she will remain ineligible and on suspension from competition.  During the suspension period, the student will be allowed to practice but will not be allowed to play in a game until the student meets the academic standard stated above.
 
*The academic standard may be waived by the building administration upon written request by the teacher and/or athletic director.
