If a student fails to maintain these minimum benchmarks, he/she shall be suspended from the team until he/she obtains the minimum grade averages.
Student-Athlete Eligibility Conduct Eligibility. If a student receives a single demerit, the student shall be suspended from participating in the next contest. If a student receives more than 3 demerits (at once or cumulative), the student shall be suspended from the team for the season. Any student who has been suspended from school in the current academic year is ineligible to participate on any competitive team. Unless an exception has been granted by the Administration, a student must be in attendance for at least ½ of the school day to be eligible to participate in practice or a game that day.
