**Any student who meets the requirements for eligibility for the 1st semester, but who has earned one F for the 2nd quarter, will be ineligible for ten school days. At the end of the ten-day period, the Assistant Principal of Academics, will ascertain if the student has improved his/her work to a satisfactory level. If not, a final check will be made 5 school days later to determine eligibility. Any student who earns more than one F for the 2nd quarter, has no 1st semester failures, and whose 1st semester GPA is above a 2.0, will be ineligible for the entire third quarter.

Any student who earns one F for the 4th quarter, has no 2nd semester failures, and whose 2nd semester GPA is above 2.0, will not be allowed to participate in any summer team activities, but will be allowed to try out for and participate in fall sports or extra-curricular or co-curricular activities starting on August 1st. Any student who has completed all 2nd semester coursework, and who has earned a 2nd semester GPA of 2.0 or better but has failed only one class for the 2nd semester may become eligible on August 1st, if that student has successfully completed a credit recovery class at St. Pius for the 2nd semester failure. If a credit recovery class is not available at St. Pius, the student must get the approval of the Assistant Principal of Academics to complete the credit recovery course through an approved program. When the credit recovery grade is received and entered into the student’s academic record, the 2nd semester GPA must remain above a 2.0 for the student to be eligible to participate on August 1st.
