A student who is absent from school on the day of a game or an athletic event in which he/she is scheduled to perform will not be allowed to compete in that event.  A student is considered “absent” if he/she is not signed in to school by 10:00 AM of that day.  Doctor appointments and school activities do not constitute an absence from school.  A note from the doctor MUST be provided on the day of the visit for the student to be eligible to participate.  Any exceptions to the above stated policies concerning absences and subsequent athletic participation must be arranged through the Athletic Director and/or the Principal the day before the absence.  Furthermore if an athlete cuts a class, he or she will be suspended a minimum of 2 games (1 football).
