ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS (SUBJECT TO CHANGE)
STUDENTS GRADES ARE EVALUATED AT MID-QUARTER & AT THE END OF THE QUARTER
A student will be declared ineligible for sports based upon the following criteria:
· Two (2) grades of 69 or below in major subject areas or one grade of 59 or below in one
subject area.
· Conduct grade below satisfactory. A student’s improper conduct may cause the pastor or
principal to declare a student ineligible.
· School day absence (less than 3 hours on a school day—Diocesan Policy) makes a player
ineligible for practice, after school activities and after school sporting events the day of the
absence.
· Excessive absences may cause the pastor or principal to declare a student ineligible for
sports.
If a student is academically ineligible, the length of the suspension is ten (10) academic days. The suspension begins on the day following distribution of progress reports and/or report cards.
Eligibility may be regained following the ten (10) day suspension with a satisfactory progress
report for that subject (70 or higher). Students who do NOT provide a satisfactory progress report at the end of the 10-day suspension and who do not maintain 70 or higher throughout the season will be permanently removed from the team roster.
During this probationary period:
· Students may not play in a conference game.
· Students may not attend practice or sit with the team during games.
· Teachers will not provide extra credit to increase a probationary grade.
NOTE:
Students will not be excused from academic appointments or detention to participate in
sports.
Everyone, before trying out, MUST have on file in the school office a current Sports Physical dated after June 1 of current school year (on school website, under Forms). This form is filled out by a Doctor and the parent.
