To be eligible to participate, practice, and/or tryout in interscholastic activities, a student must be academically eligible. A student is required to pass five (5) Carnegie unit subjects counting toward graduation, or their equivalent, the semester or quarter immediately preceding participation, accumulating at least 2.5 units each semester. Students gain or lose eligibility on the first day of the subsequent quarter or semester. Exception: Students who successfully complete summer school to maintain eligibility become eligible the last day of summer school.

a) First-year students (entering 9th Grade) are eligible academically. Second semester first-year students must have passed at least five courses the previous semester or quarter in order to participate.

b) Second-year students must have accumulated four total Carnegie unites in the first year and passed at least five courses in the previous semester.

c) Third-year students must have accumulated ten Carnegie unites in the first and second years and passed at least five courses in the previous semester
