2010 - 2011 Student Handbook ~ Grades 9-12 - McDonald County ...

It is understood that situations may occur that are not covered in these
guidelines. When that occurs, the participant will be dealt with by the coaching
staff and administration on a one-on-one basis.
EXTRACURRICULAR, CO-CURRICULAR ENRICHMENT
ACTIVITIES
In addition to MSHSAA standards, McDonald County students are
required to pass all subjects to be eligible to participate in extra curricular, cocurricular
and enrichment activities. Scholastic eligibility for students will be
checked after the third week of a semester. Teachers will report all failing
grades to the building administrator every week. If a student is failing any
class, he/she will be placed on probation during the fourth week of the
semester. The period of probation, ineligibility and eligibility will always
begin the Monday following the day eligibility is checked and end on Sunday.
The student who has once lost eligibility must be passing all subjects to become
eligible.
** Monday at 8:20 AM will be the deadline for submission of failing
grades. It will be the responsibility of the coaches to check on probationary
students or failing students from the past week.
Any student who receives formal disciplinary actions by an administrator
or the designee shall be ineligible to participate in all activities for the duration
of the specified period. Following an out-of-school suspension, students will
be placed on probation based on the number of days of suspension. During the
probation period, students will not be allowed to compete, but will continue to
practice or participate in regular school activities. Eligibility to participate and
compete must be reinstated by the building administrator.
Progress reporting to parents will occur at each mid-quarter (4 1/2 week.)
Grades will be cumulative, assigned and reported to parents at the end of each
semester with two (2) semesters required to complete a year of study.
** Deficiencies will be mailed for all students with a D & F.
