During 8th grade registration, all incoming Freshman should select PE as an Elective.

Absolutely, YES! All STUDENT ATHLETES must maintain a 2.0 GPA, pass 4 classes, have no more than one "F" or one "U" in citizenship to be eligible to participate on any of our sport teams. Each Quarter grading report reflects a students eligibility. The Athletic Director will notify students and coaches of their eligibility status.
