ATHLETICS

WE ARE THE COWBOYS!

 

Interscholastic Athletic Eligibility

To participate in in interscholastic athletic competition, a student must have a minimum of 2 ½  credits and a minimum grade point average of 2.0.  Students not achieving a GPA of at least 2.0 and not earning at least 2 ½ credits will be placed on probation for the following term.  If the GPA is below 2.0 and 2 ½ credits are not earned by the end of the probation period, the student will be ineligible until such requirements are met.  The only exceptions are entering freshmen who are eligible for the first term.  The grades used to determine eligibility are the first and second term grades.

NCAA Athletic Requirements

For athletes who have the potential of earning a college scholarship, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has established requirements for student athletes entering college.  Students must meet certain requirements to be able to practice, play, and get a scholarship at a Division I or Division II school.  Visit the NCAA website, http://www.ncaa.org , to review the specifics regarding core courses, GPA, and test scores.

CHEERLEADERS

Cheerleaders work to promote school spirit. Students have to try out to be on the squad. They must have a 2.0 overall GPA, recommendations of teachers, and good attendance record. They are judged on their ability by professional NCA or UCA instructors.  Cheerleaders meet in class together for the first semester and after school as needed. Their fees are the cheer camp which they must pay for and their uniforms. There is a cost to be involved with the Cheerleaders, but some of this is offset by fundraisers.  Cheerleaders work with area nursing homes and with area cheerleading squads.
