Attendance and Athletics Participation
|
| Bethlehem Academy expects each student to arrive at school in time for the first meeting period of the day. In the event that this is not possible, the student must be in school for the 2nd attendance period of the day in order to participate in athletics on that day. The Activities Director (or Principal in absence of the Activities Director) may, with valid reason, excuse tardiness or absence that extends beyond two class periods. Students who are absent or tardy from school the morning after a contest/formal showing may be ineligible to participate in the next game or formal showing of the group. The Activities Director (or Principal in absence of the Activities Director) will make the decision. Students who participate in a school-related event (retreat, field trip, college day, testing, etc.) are not absent from school, and, therefore, may participate in athletics on that day. A student may be excused from school with parent permission. These “excused absences” (illness, appointments, vacation, family work & errands), however may result in the student being ineligible for athletics participation. The Activities Director and Principal will determine the eligibility status of the student. In any attendance case, the President/Principal shall have the final decision regarding athletics eligibility. |
