Academic Policy and Code of Conduct
John Page Middle School
We see the Five C's
At John Page Middle School, Character and Class is expected in the Classroom, in Competition, and in the Community. Your talents should extend beyond the playing field or arena, and all athletes should strive to conduct the most positive representation of themselves in all three āCā areas mentioned above.
Our school policy on academic eligibility states that student athletes must pass FIVE (of their six) classes in order to be eligible for weekly game day participation. Student-athletes that fall below the academic threshold will be able to practice, but cannot participate in official games/meets/events until they are once again passing FIVE (5) or more classes.
Please also understand that while we want to continue to teach these student athletes the values of responsibility and accountability, athletics offer them so many valuable benefits, including (but not limited to): health, time management, conflict resolution, perseverance, managing success and overcoming adversity, healthy competition, increased social skills and self-esteem, etc.
We want to work with our student athletes to help them have every opportunity to play the sport they are passionate about, but with privilege comes responsibility. Page student athletes are expected to maintain positive character traits in and out of the class.
