If an athlete has a failing grade on their report card, they are ineligible and
will be removed from the in-season sport. Athletes cannot lose eligibility due
to a failing grade on progress reports. Athletes can regain eligibility for the
next in-season sport if they are passing all classes at the 4 ½ week monitoring
period or report card prior to that sport.
Athletes are expected to uphold the image of St. Mary's and the team by
having a good attitude and conduct towards coaches, fellow players, and
other teams.
If an athlete cannot be at a practice they must notify their coach in advance.
If an athlete becomes a discipline problem at a game or practice the coach
will decide if that athlete will play in the next game. Severe problems can
warrant suspension or expulsion from the team.
If an athlete misses a game, the coach will decide, whether that athlete will
play in the next game.
Rules, Policies, and Expectations

result in suspension or expulsion from extra-curricular activities.

Parents play a vital role in the development of
our athletes.
Be an agent of positive change.
