There are two criteria for athletic eligibility, academic performance and conduct.  Our purpose as an educational institution would not be served if we allowed athletic competition to take precedence over academic concerns.  At the same time, our purpose as a Christian discipleship institution would be compromised if we allowed students to represent our school whose attitudes and behavior were contrary to our mission.  The testimony of Christ and of the school would suffer harm.

• Any student whose cumulative average in a particular course falls below passing is ineligible to participate for a minimum of two weeks.
• A student may not have more than one course in which his average is below a C- to remain eligible.
• Eligibility is determined periodically each marking period based upon current grades in each class.  Students become ineligible beginning the following week after reports are issued.
• Any student whose merit total falls below 25 will be immediately ineligible to participate for the remainder of the marking period, regardless of whether his merit total can be raised above 25 during that time.
