Athletics Academic Eligibility

Students at Bethlehem Academy must be successfully passing enrolled courses and making satisfactory progress towards graduation. In order to be making satisfactory progress towards graduation, students must be properly enrolled and earning the minimum number of credits needed for graduation.
  • If during a grading term (quarter or semester), a student receives an Unsatisfactory Notice or Danger of Failing Notice, the student will have probationary eligibility. Criteria for continued eligibility will be developed. Parents will be informed of the situation. If the student is unable to meet the stated criteria by the established deadline, the student will be ineligible to participate in games for one calendar week, beginning on the Monday of that week. If there is still no improvement at the end of that week, ineligibility continues until the desired improvement is achieved.
  • If at the end of a grading term, a student receives a Failing Grade, the student will be ineligible for 2 games or 2 weeks of games, whichever is greater, of the next grading term in which the student is a participant. (The ineligibility will carry over to the next school year if necessary.) Parents will be informed of the situation.
  • When a student receives a Failing Grade as a final grade, the Activities Director, Academic Dean and Guidance Counselor will meet to review the student’s academic history. If this committee determines the student is not making satisfactory progress towards graduation, the student will be ineligible for the entire next grading term as required by the Minnesota State High School League.
  • A student who is suspended from attending a class or school is not satisfactorily enrolled and will be ineligible during the suspension. The ineligibility will begin immediately with the suspension.
Whenever a student is declared to be academically ineligible, the Activities Director, Academic Dean and Guidance Counselor will determine if:
  1. the student may continue to practice during the period of ineligibility, or
  2. require the student to attend after school study sessions
