Academic Requirements

The Enfield Public Schools are a member school of the Connecticut Association of Secondary Schools.  As a member school, we are governed by the uniform eligibility requirements of the CIAC. All CIAC rules and regulations, including the Handbook can be found on their website @ www.casciac.org.

Eligibility for extracurricular activities shall be based on the date that the REPORT CARDS ARE ISSUED. It is expected that report cards will be issued to students at a date not later than ten (10) school days following the close of the marking period.

To participate in extracurricular activities, a student must satisfy all of the following requirements:

1) At the end of marking periods 1, 2, and 3

• Maintain a minimum average of 1.7 (C-) for that marking period.
• Earn not more than 1 failing grade (F).
• The student must be a good school citizen and a worthy representative of Enfield Secondary Schools. Accumulated school discipline, poor attendance, or other evidence of poor citizenship will, as determined by the building principal, render a student ineligible.

2) At the end of the school year (Fall Eligibility)

• Maintain a minimum average of 1.7 (C-) in all final grades (including Semester 1 courses, Semester 2 courses, and full year courses).
• Earn a minimum of 4.5 credits in the previous school year.
• The student must be a good school citizen and a worthy representative of Enfield Secondary Schools. Accumulated school discipline, poor attendance, or other evidence of poor citizenship will, as determined by the building principal, render a student ineligible.

3) Successfully pass at least four courses at the end of each marking period used to determine eligibility for an activity.

1. Students may participate, that is, practice with their team or club at the close of the making period, but will not be declared eligible to compete/perform until report cards are issued.

PLEASE BE AWARE:  THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION MAY DECLARE A STUDENT INELIGIBLE IF IT IS FELT THAT THE STUDENT IS NOT TAKING CARE OF HIS/HER RESPONSIBILITIES BOTH AS A STUDENT AND CITIZEN OF ENFIELD HIGH AND JFK MIDDLE SCHOOL AND THE COMMUNITY.
