Progress Reports and Athletics Eligibility

How does your student’s progress report affect his or her athletics eligibility?

School Policy on Eligibility for Sports / Cheer Participants:
Progress Reports and Report Cards indicate extra-curricular eligibility. Each participant in sports and or cheer shall maintain for each academic subject a grade of “C” or higher, a Grade Point Average of 2.00 or higher, and a conduct and effort grade of “B-” or higher.

Students who do not meet these requirements at the time of Progress Reports will be placed on Academic Probation.

A student on Academic Probation has two weeks from the date Progress Reports are sent home to raise his / her grades to meet eligibility requirements. During this time the student is able to attend and participate in regularly scheduled practices and competitions. If a student is unable to meet the eligibility requirements within the two weeks, he /she will be deemed Ineligible.

Students who are Ineligible will be removed from their teams, and unable to participate in Sports / Cheer practices or competitions, until the following Sports Season.

I'm Going to College... Are You?

GOOD NEWS!

Game time for UCLA vs Washington State is 7:15pm @ the Rose Bowl. This means everyone on the football team should definitely request tickets.

Tickets are ready for pickup. Please see Mr. Han AFTER school for your tickets.

For more information on the UCLA I'm going to college program, please follow this link:

We are also looking for parents to "unofficially" organize a little tailgate / get-together. Please let Mr. Han know if you're interested.
