Couldn't be more proud of this young lady!

As we move into exam week, we want to remind everyone of the expectations regarding attendance and athletic eligibility.

Student-athletes who are exempt from exams have earned the right to be exempt. (This means that they have 4 or less absences in their classes and are not in danger of going over the 13 absence threshold by missing exempted days.) However, any student-athlete who is not exempt from exams is expected to be at school EVERY day during the exam period.

Please also understand the importance of attendance related to athletic eligibility for next school year. Under North Carolina state eligibility rules, any student-athlete who exceeds 13 unexcused absences (14 or more) in any class during the Spring Semester will be ineligible for athletics during the Fall Semester.

If a student has absences related to doctor appointments, illness, or other excusable circumstances, documentation must be turned into the school office as soon as possible. Students should also complete the waiver form available through the office so absences can be reviewed and potentially waived. Waived or excused absences do not count toward the 13-day limit.

We strongly encourage all student-athletes to check their attendance totals in each class immediately. If there are concerns about eligibility, now is the time to address them.

Bottom line: if there is any question regarding attendance or possible eligibility issues, students need to be in school.

Thank you for your help and cooperation as we finish the school year strong.
