BREMERTON SCHOOL DISTRICT

ATHLETICS AND ACTIVITIES CODE

READ THIS CODE CAREFULLY. BY SIGNING THE PERMISSION FORM, YOU ARE AGREEING

KEEP THIS COPY FOR YOUR RECORDS.

TO ABIDE BY THIS CODE.

The opportunity to participate in interscholastic athletic and activity programs is a privilege granted to

all students of the Bremerton School District. These programs are to be considered a privilege and not a

right. Therefore, these privileges can be revoked when deemed necessary. Academics are the first priority

while partaking in a school-sponsored activity. Participants must not only be in compliance with the WIAA

regulations, but also with that of the Bremerton School District Athletics/Activities Code, the school’s

Constitution and regulations imposed by the coaching staff.

As an active participant you are looked upon as a role model and a representative of Bremerton High

School and must conduct yourself in a manner that reflects the school’s ideals. The student/athletes signature

on this code represents a commitment to the rules set forth in the code. Consider this as your first warning.

ATTENDANCE:

Students must be in attendance the entire school day in order to participate that day (either practice or

competition), unless approved notification is given to the coach prior to the absence or emergency approval by

the administration is granted.

ACADEMIC ELIGIBILITY:



Students participating in co-curricular activities must be enrolled in at least five classes.



All high school students participating in co-curricular activities must be passing at least five (5) classes the

semester they participate.



In order to maintain athletic eligibility during the current semester the student shall maintain passing

grades of:

o 5 classes in a 5 period day

o or 5 classes in a 6 period day



Grade checks will be accomplished using the progress reports and/or end of semester grades, as

applicable.

o Fall sports eligibility will be based upon spring semester grades.

o Winter sports eligibility will be based upon the 1

nine-week grading period.

o Spring sports eligibility will be based upon the second semester grades.

Students failing to meet academic standards at these times will be placed on a five (5)-week probationary

period from the start of their season.

Continued grade checks will be conducted in three week cycles AFTER the 5 week probationary period has

ended. Students failing at three-week grade checks or progress report checks will be ineligible for

competition for one week and grade checks will be done weekly until the athlete is eligible.

Academically ineligible athletes are still able to practice but not participate in an event.

TRANSPORTATION: To get to an activity you must ride the team bus or ride with a coach that has the

required license and vehicle. You are allowed to ride home with your own parent/guardian upon visual

exchange between the coach and parent/guardian, as well as signed permission statement from the

parent/guardian.
