Student Athlete Suspension

Philosophy
​
Athletics are an integral part of the educational process, providing students with opportunities to further develop their unique capabilities, interests, and needs beyond the classroom. Participation in athletics is a PRIVILEGE offered to and earned by students. Because participants are representatives of their school and community, their conduct is expected to exemplify high standards at all times. Suspension from athletics can be initiated by the Athletic Director, principal and/or coach and does not require a due process hearing.

1. The student may practice with the team if he/she demonstrates academic progress towards eligibility. (Coach and/or administrator decision)

2. The student may stand on the sideline and or sit on the bench during home games. (Coach and/or administrator decision)

3. The student CANNOT participate in any interscholastic event at any level of competition during the period of suspension.

4. The student CANNOT travel with the team to any interscholastic event at any level of competition during the period of suspension.
