Athletic Eligibility at AMS
To be in initiated Fall 2008
Academic eligibility is based on grades from the most recent quarter, prior to the beginning of the sport. A student is eligible to participate in athletics if he or she receives a 2.0 G.P.A., (“C” average) or higher and has not received a “F” in any class.
If a student is participating in a sport and receives a report card that makes him/her ineligible, the student will be dropped from the team.
However, a student may be granted a “one-time-only” probation exemption if they fail to earn eligibility. This probation is valid only if the student has not received an “F” in their most recent quarter.
A student who receives an “F” is not eligible for probation.
Once a student has been granted a one-time-only probation, the student may participate in athletics. This probation applies to only one quarter in the student’s years at AMS. Probation status is meant to be a second and and final chance. No exceptions will be made.
In order for an athlete to be granted their Academic Probation, the athlete must have a conference with his or her parent (s), the athletic director, and coach if possible, to discuss the terms of the probation.
