A FREE AFTER - SCHOOL TUTORING PROGRAM
In order to be eligible to participate in VHSL- sanctioned activities, the School Board of Chesapeake has adopted a policy requiring participants to maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA . Mandatory study sessions have been developed for VHSL participants who are in jeopardy of failing to meet the 2.0 requirement or who fall below the requirement. Even though the program targets VHSL participants, all students who would like extra help are invited to participate. Bus transportation is provided Tuesday through Thursday. A bus pass is needed and may be obtained from the WIN teacher.
The study sessions are open to all students.
The study sessions will be held Tuesday through Thursday from 4:00- 4:45 p.m.
The only legitimate excuse for athletes with a GPA below 2.0 not attending a study session is being absent from school the entire day or having a contest conflict (game day).
Any VHSL participant who does not maintain a 2.0 GPA for the previous semester, or a cumulative 2.0, will be required to attend the study sessions. If the participant is in season and does not attend study sessions and is not absent for legitimate reasons as identified earlier, the participant shall not practice in contests beginning Monday of the following week and continuing through Saturday of that week.
Any VHSL participant who receives a grade below a “C” in any class should be encouraged to utilize the resources of the study sessions regardless of his/her semester cumulative GPA.
The study sessions will provide a quiet study area, peer tutoring, and faculty tutoring for attendees.
VHSL Initial Eligibility
A VHSL participant must maintain a 2.0 GPA prior to initial participation, regardless of when initial participation begins. Under this provision, in order to be eligible for the first semester, a ninth-grade participant must have maintained a 2.0 GPA for the spring semester of the eighth-grade year. Also, under this provision, an eighth-grade student competing at the sub-varsity level must maintain a 2.0 GPA for the semester or the year prior to participation. Any student entering a VHSL activity and establishing eligibility for the first time must have had a 2.0 GPA for the previous semester or have a 2.0 cumulative
After meeting the 2.0 GPA requirement for the initial participation, the student may have one probationary period of high school eligibility (grades 9-12). The probationary period is defined as the semester following a semester in which a participant falls below the 2.0 GPA requirements and still meets the VHSL eligibility requirements, even if the child does not participate in a sport during that probationary period. This semester may be used as a probationary period in which the student is allowed to continue participation in VHSL activities and must attend mandatory study hall. Any student participating in a sport while in the probationary semester may not practice or participate in contests unless study sessions are attended.
