Athletics
Citizenship: A student interested in junior high athletics would be eligible to try out/participate as long as he/she has no more than one U, or one N and one U, or two N’s for the previous and current quarter as determined by the last official report card. Other combinations beyond this will result in an ineligible status for tryouts or team participation. The report card will be the basis for determining eligibility.
Scholastic: Students must attain and maintain a 2.0 GPA or better with no more than one ‘F’ for the previous and current quarter as determined by the last official report card; or a cumulative 2.0 GPA computed from the four previous successive quarters with no more than one ‘F’ per quarter. The printed report card will be the basis for determining eligibility. Incomplete grades must be resolved prior to eligibility consideration.
All athletes/student representatives must sign the WSD Code of Conduct. Any conduct that results in dishonor to the athlete, the team, or the school will not be tolerated. Athletes representing the school are expected to maintain high standards of behavior. A serious violation of school rules or behavior that brings discredit to the organization or the school (i.e. inappropriate behavior to include but not limited to theft, truancy, vandalism, disrespect, violations of law, etc.) will result in the student being placed on probation, or being dropped from the team/ organization.
It is the responsibility of the coach to determine and carry out consequences of violations. If a question arises, the situation may be referred to an eligibility committee. This committee consists of the Assistant Principal and five teachers.
A student who is on suspension from school may not practice, travel with or play during the time of suspension.
