Eligibility
Academic Eligibility:
1) Student-athletes are expected and required to maintain passing grades for all of their classes. Student-athletes should complete and submit all assignments on time, They should also check their grades through Schoology on a frequent basis.
2) If student-athletes have any questions about their grades or how to improve them, they should speak to that teacher directly. The preferred times to speak to a teacher are during lunch, before school, or after school. There may be occasional instances when it is appropriate to address these concerns before class, during class, or after class. Student-athletes may also email teachers with their questions. In general, student-athletes should expect that most assignments will be graded within 1 week of submitting the assignment.
