Athletic Eligibility

At St. John, we are strong supporters of extra-curricular activities, and we recognize the value of these activities in the lives of our students. All students are encouraged to get involved in the wide range of group and individual activities offered. We also believe that we have the shared responsibility to assist our students in maintaining an appropriate balance between their studies and activities.
 
In order to maintain eligibility for extra-curricular activities, all SJCHS students must:
  • demonstrate regular attendance
  • attend school on game day
  • be in good academic standing
  • be striving to achieve (passing) in their current courses
  • be in full time attendance (3 courses per semester)
  • have been successful in a minimum of 3 out of 4 courses (or 2 out of 3 for senior students) in the previous semester
  • demonstrate consistent effort and study habits
  • adhere to the Safe School Policy.
*If the above are not evident, the student will be suspended from the activities until improvement is noted.
 
Activity Fees
Please note that each sport has its own activity fees to help offset the cost of bussing, referees, etc. No student will be prevented from participating in an activity due to financial concerns at home.
