Athletics Attendance

From the CIF Player-Parent Handbook, page 14

Early Release from Class

It is the responsibility of athletes to communicate with their teachers before they depart because of an athletic contest. Teachers will receive a team roster with the names of all team members at the beginning of a season (this roster will be updated as needed). Athletes with an early release time should remind their teacher of this before class on the day of the event. Students are responsible for any and all work and tests missed due to an early release. Students will not be permitted to leave class prior to a release time. It is an athlete’s choice and privilege to leave school early to participate in athletics and to maintain at least a 2.0 GPA. It is a teacher’s choice to release a student.

Attendance Policy

Student-athletes are required to attend two-thirds (block schedule) or three-fourths (4x4 schedule) of their school day in order to be eligible to practice or play in a scheduled match, game or contest.

Parents / Students - When planning appointments during the school day on a day student athletes have an athletic event, please plan accordingly to ensure they will be eligible to compete. Students who have 4 classes on their schedule must be completely present in 3 of their 4 classes; students who only have 3 classes must be completely present in 2 of their 3 classes.
