    COMPETITIVE INTERSCHOLASTIC ACTIVITIES IN GRADES 6 - 8.
     
     Student Eligibility

    In an effort to relieve some of the stress with students returning to school, ALL students will be Academically Eligible during the first semester of this school year.  However, we will move back to our regular policies beginning with the first semester report card for Winter and Spring Sports.  Also be advised that the age limit still stands, no student can turn 16 prior to May 1st of the current school year. 

    (I) For determining student eligibility, the grading period shall be a semester. The same period shall also be the minimum length of the ineligibility period.
    (II) Students participating in competitive interscholastic activities shall pass a minimum of 70% of courses carrying credit toward grade promotion in the semester immediately preceding participation.  
     
    APS Policy DOES NOT allow 6th grade students to participate in FOOTBALL ONLY. They are allowed to try-out for the other sports.
