Athletic participation requires high levels of commitment and responsibility. Athletes are responsible for bringing the necessary equipment on appropriate days. Parents/Guardians are responsible to provide students with transportation following practices and games. Students shall remain with coaches in assigned areas until their rides come. Students may be suspended or dismissed from a team if expectations established by the school and/or coach are not met.

Rules for Student Athletes:

While each coach has his or her own rules for his or her team, the Lee-Moore Athletic Conference and school administrations have developed rules regarding attendance and disciplinary actions on the day of any athletic event (practice is considered an athletic event). In order to participate in an athletic event the student must:

● Be present at school for at least half of the day in his or her regular classes. Any student who is off campus due to a field trip or other school-related event is considered to be present.

● Not have In-School Suspension (ISS) or Out-of-School Suspension (OSS). Any student with ISS or OSS is not able to participate in any activities after school. This also prohibits a student from attending the game as a spectator.

Rules regarding the accumulation of office referrals resulting in ISS and OSS are as follows:

If an athlete is in ISS or OSS they are not allowed to participate in any after-school activities including practice AND games.

● First ISS: Player cannot attend practice or game the day of ISS. Coaches will make decision about team-related discipline

● Second ISS: Player cannot attend practice or game the day of ISS. Student will be suspended for one game

● Third ISS: Student will be removed from the team

● First OSS: Player cannot attend practice or game the day of OSS. Student will be suspended from the team for one game after an OSS

● Second OSS: Student will be removed from team
