  • Athlete Expectations

    Our athletes have a great opportunity to represent their school in a positive way. Athletes are expected to abide by all school rules and keep on top of their grades. Students that have a failing (F) grade will be ineligible for games the following week. Eligibility checks are done on Thursday of every week. Athletes that fail to follow the rules and recieve a referral at school may have consequences in sports as well. This is determined by the Athletic Director and the coaches.
