Hill-Murray Policy: Attendance
 Students
must be in school the entire day in order
to be eligible to participate.
 A student who misses any portion of a school day
may not participate in any co-curricular activity
(practice, performance, games, scrimmage, etc.)
on that day, unless the absence has been
approved, in advance, through the Office of
Student Life.
 If a student is absent on a Friday or part of a
Friday, the absence carries over to any weekend
event.
Coaches’ Policy: Attendance
 Players
are expected to attend all
practices and games
 Unexcused absences will result in the
player being ineligible to play for the first
half of the next game.

Unexcused absences include, but are not
limited to: tardy arrival at school the day of
or prior to a game, missing or late to
game/practice, detention during practice,
etc.
Academic Eligibility

In order for students to be eligible to participate in co-curricular
activities, they must maintain a current grade point average of
2.0 and must pass all their classes. This is not a cumulative grade
point average; it is the grade point average for the current
grading period. The 2.0 grade point average can only be
determined using semester grades. Students must be passing
each of their classes at the end of 1st quarter and 3rd quarter.
Students must be passing all their classes and have a minimum
of a 2.0 grade point average at the end of 1st semester and 2nd
semester.

A student may become ineligible on the basis of quarter or
semester grades. The student is automatically ineligible for a
period of three weeks. After three weeks, a student will regain
their eligibility if he meets the appropriate criteria. Those who do
not bring their grades up remain ineligible until the next grading
period. In order to restore eligibility at the end of the three week
period, a student must turn in a progress report signed by each
of his teachers to the athletic office on the day that is listed as
the end of the three week period.
Chemical Use Policy

The use or possession of tobacco, alcohol or any drug or
controlled substance not prescribed for the student by a doctor,
or the possession of anything that may be defined or construed
as drug paraphernalia is not permitted. No student is to be
present in a bar, tavern, restaurant or residence where alcohol is
served unless accompanied by his parents or guardians.
Students are expected to immediately leave any situation
where alcohol or other controlled substances are present.

Out of Season Incident:
 Suspension from participation in interscholastic contests for
three weeks or three contests, whichever is longer. This
consequences applies to violation during the school year
when the student is not participating in a school-sanctioned
activity or to violations that occur during the summer months.
Chemical violations occurring when a student is not in season
will automatically carry over to the student’s next season.
Therefore, the three-contest rule will be in effect for the nonseason athlete.

In season Incident:
 Any violation during the lacrosse season will result in
IMMEDIATE REMOVAL from the team
