ATHLETIC FORMS.......

2007-08 Athletic Handbook

Parent Permission Form for Athletic Participation

Eligibilty In order to participate in interscholastic activities, students must be academically eligible. A student, while participating, must be taking a minimum of four academic courses, or their equivalent, for which no previous credit has been received. A student who is repeating a course for which he has previously received credit cannot count this course as one of the four required for eligibility. This is considered as auditing a course. To participate in interscholastic athletic activities, students in grades 9-12 must achieve an overall passing average in addition to the following: To be eligible in the first semester a student must pass a minimum of five Carnegie units applicable toward a high school diploma during the previous year. At least two units must have been passed during the second semester or Summer School. To be eligible during the second semester, the student must meet one of the following conditions: * If eligible first semester, must earn 2 units * If not eligible first semester, must earn 2 _ units * Students must satisfy eligibility requirements in the semester preceding participation. * Credits earned in a summer school approved by the State Department of Education may apply for first semester eligibility. A maximum of two units per year may be used. Students eligible for a first semester sport will be permitted to complete that sport even if it extends into the second semester. Under the current League program, this will apply to participants in basketball and wrestling.

High School Athletic Insurance

All participants of high school athletic programs are required to purchase athletic insurance through the school. Students will not be allowed to either practice or become a member of the team without this coverage. Because this policy is mandatory it covers only injuries received during practice for or participating in a high school sport. This required policy should not be confused with the school time/ 24-hour plan which is optional and covers all school time injuries including all athletic injuries except football. Again, the athletic insurance is mandatory while the school time/24 hour plan is optional.

Attendance Requirements to Participate

To participate in a game, you must be in attendance at school at least one/half of the day (2 entire class periods) on the day of a game.
