G.        OTHS Eligibility Policy

 

            Motion:  The Board shall amend policy JJJ to read:

Academics

To be eligible to participate in non-curricular extra-curricular activities at Old Town High school, a student must be passing a minimum of five (5) classes (subjects) and failing no more than one class (subject.) Failure of any class for a second consecutive nine-week ranking period during the academic year, regardless of the number of classes carried, shall result in the student being ineligible for participation in non-curricular extra curricular activities for a nine week

period.

 

Eligibility will be determined by the quarter grade. Eligibility will be determined until the next quarter grades are posted. Non-curricular extra-curricular eligibility is determined by the posted grade and in no case, other than computational error, will eligibility status be changed due to

make-up” or “extra-credit” work completed after the posting of grades. An “Incomplete” grade,

for purposes of eligibility, shall be considered a failure until the final grade is posted. Any student who is determined ineligible as a result of 4th quarter grades shall be ineligible until the first (1st) quarter grades of the next school year are posted. Any class that is dropped outside of the “add-drop” period shall count as the grade earned at the time the class was dropped for eligibility purposes.        

 

For the 2007-2008 school year, students deemed to be ineligible as determined by current Board policy shall be allowed to participate in practices but shall not be eligible to participate in contests until progress reports are issued at the mid-point of the quarter.  At this point, if an ineligible student continues to be ineligible by the above stated standard, they shall be dropped from the team roster and no longer shall they practice or compete until the next quarter grades are posted.
