Athletics

Attendance - Each student shall be in attendance at school all day and each day practices, contests, performances or activities are held unless the absence is prearranged or excused through the Athletic Director or the Principal. A participant shall be in all classes on Friday to be eligible to participate in an activity during the weekend unless prearranged or excused by the Athletic Director or the Principal. 

Academic Eligibility -  OSAA eligibility requires that a participant be passing 5 out of 7 classes and have accumulated a minimum number of credits by the start of each school year. Additionally, BHS policy requires any participant not maintaining a 2.00 GPA be placed on academic probation (please reference BHS Athletic Code).

Students who choose to participate in OSAA-sponsored events, except Band and Choir, will pay according to the following "Pay-to-Play" schedule. Students should talk to the Athletic Director or Administration if this is a hardship. This is an annual fee scale.

Students must have a record of passing an OSAA physical examination at least every other year on file with the office prior to practice and competition in athletics and may not participate without said record on file.

Parents must obtain and verify student insurance for all students competing in athletics or participating in a school sponsored trip outside the district. The district retains the right to keep students from participating in extracurricular activities, if they are not appropriately insured.

Transportation for participants to and from out-of-town contests and activities is provided by Bandon School District.  Each participant shall travel with the team or group to all out-of-town contests and activities and shall return with the team or group.  This includes all support personnel including, but not limited to, managers, statisticians, camera people, and accompanists.  A participant may leave with a parent of legal guardian only after a written request, dated and signed by that person, is given to the responsible director/coach and with the director/coach’s permission or the permission of the building principal or athletic director. 

Spectators should understand that their behavior is a reflection upon BSD while attending any athletic contest or activity after school.  Students are expected to conduct themselves according to all school rules and to the following guidelines:

1. You should always be courteous to other spectators attending the contest.

2. Encourage and support your team, but do not make negative comments to or about members of the visiting team or officials.

3. Remain in the area where the contest is taking place.  Students who are not watching the contest but are just playing around in the halls or outside will be asked to leave and may lose their privilege to attend future events.
