​The levels of competition and regulations are determined by the California Interscholastic Federation (C.I.F.) and the Saint Genevieve Athletic staff.

SPECIFIC REGULATIONS REGARDING ELIGIBILITY FOR CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

To participate in co-curricular activities or interscholastic athletics, students must maintain a minimum academic GPA of 2.0.  This GPA will be computed at the regular ten week grading period of the academic semester. Freshmen will enter Saint Genevieve High School as an eligible participant. Continuing eligibility will be calculated commencing with the first Progress Report. Transfer students eligibility will be based on transfer transcripts/grades.

PROBATION

Any student who falls below an academic GPA of 2.0 or earns one or more F's will be placed on academic probation. Students may have the opportunity for academic probation (once per school year).  Students can be removed from academic probation at the end of the ten week grading period if they have earned an academic GPA of 2.0 or better with no F's. Students who are on academic probation and below a 2.0 GPA will be required to attend mandatory tutoring.  Students who are failing a class but above a 2.0 GPA must make every effort to remediate the failing grade. Students that do not schedule tutoring to improve a failing grade may be required to attend mandatory tutoring. While on probation, students may continue to participate in co-curricular activities; however, attending mandatory tutoring takes priority over participating in rehearsals and practices of co-curricular activities.

INELIGIBILITY

Following probation if a student is still below an academic GPA of 2.0 he/she becomes ineligible. A student may continue to participate in practices, rehearsals, etc but may not participate in games, performances, etc. however; students may not receive athletic equipment or game uniforms. Mandatory tutoring takes priority over all co-curricular activities.  Students who continue to maintain a 2.0 GPA but are still failing a class will be required to attend mandatory tutoring but remain eligible.

ATTENDANCE

A student must be present for 3 or more class periods to be eligible to participate in any extra-curricular activity or event on the same day (or that weekend if the absence was on Friday). The exception is a school-sponsored activity which requires the student to be away from school or the approval of the administration. Violation can result in team forfeiture and will result in disciplinary action against the violator.

Excused absences will be at the discretion of the Administration.


TRYOUT

Any athlete who quits or is dismissed from one team is not allowed to try out for another sport team during that season until the season of the first sport is completed.
