IT'S IN THE DETAILS-Class Attendance
What does it mean to be a Christian Student-Athlete at BVCS?
Our athletic program is built on the belief that the following work together to shape strong disciples and responsible young adults.
Faith
Academics
Athletics
Sometimes the most important standards are found in the small details — especially attendance.
Class Attendance is Part of Being- Per Handbook Policy
Being a BVC Christian student-athlete means honoring commitments in the classroom before stepping onto the field or court.
Students must attend more than half of the school day on the day of a game or practice
4 of 7 periods (traditional schedule)
2 of 4 block periods (block schedule)
All scheduled classes if you have a “term waiver.”
Students must be present for the entire class period to count as attendance
Avoid appointments on game days whenever possible
Attendence for Game Day Travel
Understand that early team departures (6th or 7th period) do not count as missing attendance
If a student leaves due to illness, they may not return to participate for safety reasons, for the player and their team.
Why This Matters
Our program is about more than winning games — it’s about building character, discipline, and integrity.
“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much.” — Luke 16:10
Thank you for partnering with us in developing student-athletes who honor Christ in every detail of their lives — in class, in competition, and in character.

Athletic Sports Clearance
Are you considering coming out for a Spring season sport? Before you can participate in tryouts, you must complete the online clearance at Home Campus. Both parents and athlete will need to finish the online application and upload your current sports physical. Don't delay! We don't want you to miss out on participating in Lions athletics.
F.A.Q. (Frequently asked Questions) about Athletic Clearances
Want to play a sport at BVCS?
Complete online information and signatures on homecampus.com
Upload your current (within 1 year) sports physical onto homecampus.com
You do not need to turn in any paperwork to the office. It is all done online.
You will receive an email from Home Campus notifying you that you are cleared.
Home Campus does not alert the Athletic Office when you complete your portion of the clearance process.
Please note that we are the ones who manually mark student-athletes as “cleared.” If you do not receive an email confirming your clearance, that means you're not cleared yet.
If you have any questions or believe there’s an error, feel free to contact michellec@bvcs.org to check on your athlete's clearance status
Student-athletes will not be allowed to participate in tryouts, practices, or games until this information is complete and you are cleared.
Does the clearance from last year still work the next year?
No, it does not carry over
If the sports physical has not expired yet and I uploaded it last year, do I have to upload it again this year?
Yes, we cannot see the previous year's documentation. Each year is separate. You can upload that same physical from the previous school year if it is still valid.
If the sports physical expires mid-season, do we need a new physical?
Yes, we are alerted when it expires, and the athlete cannot continue to participate in any physical activity until a new one has been uploaded.
All the athletes on this wall have played 12 sports in their high school career: 3 sports per year for all 4 years in high school. This award is recognized with a lifetime Lions pass that gets you into all Lions home games for free for life and we put your name on this wall to celebrate you. Being a 12 sport athlete is no small feat and requires dedication to sport and to academics to manage that intense load. We are proud of all our 12 sport award winners and challenge you to be one too!
