Behavior Code for Athletes

• Participants are expected to attend school. Any student missing more than four periods in one day may not participate in any athletic contest on that day. If a student misses more than four periods on a day preceding a day(s) when school is closed, the student cannot participate in their next scheduled contest. Participating in school-related activities outside of school, or attending a funeral, are exceptions. Exceptions due to emergencies can only be granted by the Athletic Director.


• Participants are responsible for the uniforms and equipment assigned to him/her by the coach/advisor. The student will be required to pay for lost equipment and equipment damaged through misuse.


• Any participant caught stealing equipment, uniforms or destroying school property will be immediately dismissed from the team/club for the remainder of the season.


• Any participant caught possessing or using alcohol or drugs during a school activity will be immediately dismissed from the team/club for the remainder of the time that the team/club meets.


• The Behavior Code applies to all athletes during a supervised athletic activity. All items in the "Athletic Contract" are hereby included as part of the student handbook.


• Any participant serving in-school suspension for two or more periods in one day may not participate in an athletic contest during that day of suspension. He/she may participate in practice. Any participant receiving in-school suspension during any two or more days in one week must miss the scheduled contest.


• Any student serving an out-of-school suspension may not participate in any practice, athletic contest, or activity during the day(s) of suspension. If the period of suspension includes a weekend or holiday, the student may not participate in any activity, practice or game during the weekend or holiday period.
