The MMHS Athletic committee has developed the following procedures to be followed in regard to a student having academic difficulties.
The following steps will be taken:
-
A meeting with the student athlete, concerned parent/guardian, and the chair of MMHS Athletic Committee will take place. A two-week probation period will be instituted during which progress will be monitored. The athlete will be permitted to participate in practices and games during this period.
-
After the two-week probation, if improvement is noted, the probation will be discontinued. If improvement has NOT been noted, the chair will meet with student and parent/guardian, a second two week probation period will occur during which the athlete will be suspended from practices or games and will be expected to complete outstanding course work in after school detentions.
-
Following this second probation period, if the athlete has shown improvement, he/she will be reinstated. Progress will continue to be monitored. If no improvement has been shown, a meeting with the Athletic Committee will take place; further action, which most likely will include a permanent suspension, will then be taken.
