As parents of athletes representing the Oneonta School District, the administration and coaches

would like to inform you of the Athletic Department's policy regarding student/athletes who are

on the failing list. The failing list contains a list of students and the courses they are failing.

The list is generated every five weeks at both the high school and the middle school.

 

 

A. The student must meet with each teacher of the courses they are failing within a day

of receiving their Extra-Curricular Academic Eligibility Form from their coach. The goal of this 

meeting is to develop a plan for improvement that is agreed upon by both the teachers and

student.

 

B. The student may continue to participate in practices and games for a 10 school day

probationary period. If he/she successfully upholds the terms and conditions

outlined in the plan, the teacher may sign the form confirming that the student has

improved in the course. The teacher may choose to sign the form anytime within

the 10-day period based on the individual student's circumstances. If the student

fails to meet the terms and conditions of the plan and attain the teacher’s signature

within the 10 days he/she will be ineligible to participate athletically. The student

will regain athletic eligibility at the time he/she successfully completes the agreed

plan for all the courses they are failing.

 

 

A. These students must meet with the teachers of the courses they are failing and develop a plan

that will improve their course work.

 

B. These students are immediately ineligible to attend/participate in practice or games until

they reduce the number of courses failing to 3 or less. At this time, he/she will be

held to the course of action outlined in Section I.
