Boards of education are required to adopt a board policy requiring students in grades seven through 12 to attain a minimum grade point average, established by the board, as a condition of participation in interscholastic extracurricular activities. Boards also are required to adopt a policy either prohibiting or allowing student participation when a student has received a failing grade for any class during the previous grading period. In addition to board policy and administrative guidelines regarding student eligibility and participation in interscholastic extracurricular activities, districts also must adhere to the rules and regulations set forth by the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA).

What is your board policy for being eligible to play??? Some schools say as long as they have a 1.0 GPA which is a joke.

The OHSAA sets the eligibility requirements in the state of Ohio, and a district can make it more strict if they want, but the OHSAA says you have to pass 5 out of 7. That's the ONLY grade requirement made by the state. There is no GPA requirement.

You are educating me here… so you are saying they must have to get a D- on 5 out of 7 classes which can be weightlifting or PE? That seems very weak and doesn’t help get the kid to graduation with their seals they need.

Why did you not already know this i thought you were a product of superior burg academics? Wonder how many burg student are presently bi or tri lingual? I ask because thats normal for high school age kids here in Northern Virginia?
