Academic Eligibility
To be academically eligible to participate in athletics, student-athletes must be earning passing grades (above a 60%) in all core academic classes (History, Math, Science, English, and Foreign Language). Academic eligibility will be determined on Monday of each week and the student-athlete, parents/guardians, learning specialist, coaches, and academic dean will be notified if a student is ineligible. If a student is ineligible, they will not be eligible to participate in practices or competitions until they are earning a passing grade*. The Homework Assistant Program (HAP) is available after school from 3-5pm Monday through Thursday.
If a student has a failing grade for a quarter, but has a cumulative, yearly grade over 70%, they WILL be eligible for participation. If a student has a failing grade for a quarter, and has a cumulative grade under 70%, they will NOT be eligible for participation.
*If a student is earning a passing grade for a quarter but has a cumulative average that is failing/at risk of failing a semester or yearlong course, a determination of a student's eligibility will be made by the Academic Dean, Head of Upper School, and Director of Athletics.
