Academic Info for Athletes

Academic Eligibility

Academic Eligibility Requirements

Athletes must be full-time students every semester, not just the semester in which they are playing a sport.
In our daily 7-period schedule, student athletes must be passing 6 out of 7 classes to maintain WIAA athletic eligibility at grades checks.
By WIAA rule you have to be passing the minimum number of classes (6 classes) if you are only taking the minimum number of classes. For example, if you are only taking 6 classes in a 7-period day you must pass all 6 classes at the grade check to be eligible.
Athletes cannot be taking LESS THAN 6 CLASSES a semester UNLESS they are a Senior on track to graduate in which case they can take 5 classes but MUST be passing ALL at the grade check.

It is critical, when registering or altering your class schedule, to understand this criteria in order to maintain eligibility to participate.

CONTACT the ATHLETICS DIRECTOR prior to making schedule changes so they can confirm your eligibility.

There are many scenarios with Running Start and Alternative Schools. Please contact A.D. Klee, if you have specific questions related to these situations.

Schedule & Grade Checks

SCHEDULE IMPACTS ATHLETES GRADE CHECKS

The Athletic Department will conduct scheduled grades throughout all 3 sports seasons. During a sports season a student is participating in, they must maintain eligibility to be able to participate in contests. Typically there is 1 grade check per month.

Athletes taking 7 classes (3.5 credits) must be passing at least 6 classes to be eligible.
Athletes taking 6 classes (3.0 credits) must be passing all 6 classes to be eligible.
Seniors taking 5 classes (2.5 credits) must be passing all 5 classes to stay eligible.

Students in Running Start or Alternative Ed programs must maintain a full course load each semester and be passing the required number of classes to be eligible to participate.

Final semester grades impact an athlete's eligibility to participate in contests the following semester.

Off Campus Students: Contracts & Grades

Athletes not taking a full course load on campus must complete a WIAA Educational Contract for their off-campus course(s). Complete your off-campus contract and turn it in to Christy Tran in the Main Office or email it to ctran@nsd.org or rklee@nsd.org.

See the WIAA Eligibility Center for help.

Running Start Contract
Alternative Ed Contract (includes WANIC Students)
Home School Contract

Reporting Grades:
-IN SOME cases this will mean doing a Canvas print of your Running Start grades.
-In other cases it will mean getting the registrar from your off campus school to send grade updates.
-If you are in WANIC please ask your instructor to send a grade status to Ms. Tran.

It is the responsibility of each student-athlete to share their grades for each grade check on dates stated.

Send grades to A.D. Klee at rklee@nsd.org

Student-Athletes & Social Media

Tech information regarding
social media and athletics

The following is from Mason McHenry who is a math teacher at BHS along with being our former head Cross Country/Track Coach. Coach McHenry was part of the University of Arizona athletic staff prior to moving to the northwest. He has this perspective on social media from his time at the collegiate level:

As technology advances so does the way student-athletes are able to brand themselves. It wasn't until recently that the NCAA allowed student-athletes to promote themselves and use the image for their benefit, but even before that, student-athletes were held accountable for how they present themselves online.

At Northshore School District we have recently acquired and developing our social media presence in athletics. Therefore, our teams and student-athletes must understand how to use social media correctly.

Every year numerous athletic scholarships are revoked for the misuse of social media by student-athletes. They are held accountable their own posts as well as for reposting, liking, sharing posts that have negative connotations, hateful speech, racial slurs, slander, etc.

Nothing is private on social media. What you might think is harmless or funny to a group of friends might not be in the interests of the institutions you are about to represent after your secondary education, athlete or not. As we move forward with developing our social media presence, we are hoping to pass along better information on how to use social media for our student-athletes.

Never let a meme that you or your friend created cause you to lose your future so ...
THINK BEFORE YOU POST
