All participating students must receive a “Student Activity/Athletic Handbook” in which clearly outlines expectations. All advisors must abide by these guidelines as described. The following are some behaviors that will affect the students participation and membership status:
- Use of drugs/alcohol/Controlled substance whether in possession/use/distribution*
- Student Conduct or respresentation of the organization/school
- Any conduct that a Coach/Advisor feels is unacceptable behavior (insubordination, fighting, profanity, poor sportsmanship, etc.)
Consequences, will be administered as follows:
- 1st offense – short term suspension (3-5 school days) from the team/activity.
- If the incident is severe, continues to occur, long term suspension or dismissal from the team/activity may be invoked as applied by the principal, athletic/activity director and head coach/advisor.
- * Use or possession of drugs/alcohol/controlled substance is considered to be 'severe' and consequences will be administered as such.
In the event that a student/parent appeals the initial decision a Hearing Committee will be formed. This committee will consist of coach/advisor, athletic director/activities director, teacher representative, administrator. A date will be set to hear the case presented by the student/family and make a decision to: drop the consequence, modify the consequence or to uphold the consequence.
