Grade Checks and Eligibility

At the end of the month, report cards will be coming out. This means that all debaters must submit their report cards for eligibility. There are two minimum requirements to remain eligible for debate.

  1. Minimum unweighted GPA of 2.0
  2. Failing no more than 1 course

Any student failing to meet these requirements will be ineligible to compete for the entire 2nd trimester. 2nd Trimester report cards will be evaluated to determine eligibilty for the third trimester, including the City Championship and State tournaments. Grade check forms are being distributed to debaters to check on grades now. Students failing any classes must discuss that grade with his/her teacher to determine if there is any work that can be made up to improve the course grade.

Academics is and will always take priority over debate.
