Eligibility Sports Season
A full-time student earns academic eligibility to participate in extracurricular activities by maintaining a 2.0 grade-point average (GPA), calculated using credit or non-credit courses, with no more than one failing grade for the marking period, which governs eligibility for that activity. For more information, see Policy 9070 – Academic Eligibility for High School Extracurricular Activities.
The Marking Periods for Academic Eligibility are determined by the following:
- Fall sports eligibility – Determined by the final marking or 4th quarter grades of the previous academic year or June's grades.
- Winter sports eligibility – Determined by the grades earned in the 1st quarter.
- Spring sports eligibility – Determined by the grades earned in the 2nd quarter.
