Under the Dexter Mosley Act, home study students in grades 6-12 are eligible to participate in extracurricular and interscholastic activities in the Columbia County School District.
To participate, home study students shall complete at least one qualifying course during any semester the student participates in an extracurricular or interscholastic activity. A “qualifying course” means an on-site course, an online course facilitated by CCSD, or a dual enrollment course. Participation is only available at the public school in which a home study student would be enrolled based on his or her residence.
To enroll a home study student in at least one CCSD course to participate in extracurricular and interscholastic activities, please complete the online Participation Declaration Form. Once you have completed the form, contact the LHS guidance office or Coach Derrick Myers, LHS Athletic Director.
Please note: Families interested in enrolling under the Dexter Mosley Act must complete the same online enrollment application as full-time CCSD students.
Contact Derrick Myers at derrick.myers@ccboe.net if you have any questions.
