Athletic Attendance & Eligibility:

For the purpose of establishing a daily attendance eligibility for interscholastic athletic participation, students attending school virtually or in person cannot miss more than one period during the course of the school day.If a student misses more than one  period of the school day, they are not eligible to participate in athletics. With prior approval, the principal may grant an exception to the full day regulation for good cause for any student

Any student that would like to participate on a sports team must be in good academic standing. Cecil County Public Schools (CCPS) requires student-athletes to maintain passing grades in all courses to remain eligible to participate in interscholastic sports. Eligibility is determined four (4) times per school year when report cards are issued to all students. Therefore, any student that receives an “F” or a “Z’ (for poor attendance) on his/her Marking Period report card will not be eligible to continue participating in high school athletics. An ineligible student is able to gain their eligibility back by receiving all passing grades on their Marking Period Two report card (February 9th, 2024) and/or maintaining 4 or less days of absences. Students or parents that have questions about this policy, practices, games, etc… are encouraged to routinely visit our school’s athletic webpage. They can also reach out to the school’s Athletic Director (Mr. Kline) with any specific questions.
