Eligibility refers to a student's good standing so that he/she may participate in high school athletics, academic teams, and other competitive activities, such as cheerleading and marching band. Eligibility rules are governed by the Georgia High School Association (GHSA). Currently, all first time 9th graders are eligible to participate for the first semester. To maintain eligibility for the second semester a 9th grader must pass at least five (5) of his or her classes. Students gain or lose eligibility on the first day of the next semester. Students must be eligible during the semester in which tryouts are held. Also, students must be "on track" to graduate.
