Students must be officially enrolled in Waterford Schools, have a physical card, and have an Athletic Code of Conduct signed by parent and student before they may begin practice. Physical cards are available in the Main Office. A student must be in attendance at school all day to participate in practice or a contest on that same day. To be eligible to participate in an athletic program, students must meet the MHSAA minimum of passing 66% of all classes attempted and meet the following Waterford School District eligibility policy.  

        1. Have no more than one E and a 2.0 in your other 5 classes.

All Student Athletes who did meet the MHSAA previous semester criteria of passing 66% of their credit hours but did not meet the 2.00 criteria will have their grades checked at the 10 week point. If at that point the student athlete has achieved the 2.0 Grade Point Average they will become immediately eligible. Any student who passes all 6 classes will be eligible to participate in interscholastic athletics.

2.            2. Have no more than one E and a 2.0 in your other 5 classes during your current semester

      All student athletes must maintain a Grade Point Average of 2.0 during the present semester. If the student athlete does not meet the current semester standard they must sit out a minimum of (1) week defined as Monday through Sunday or until the minimum requirement is met. The student athlete may continue to practice during the ineligible period, but may not participate in competition during that time. 

The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has set the academic standards for all athletes. If these standards are not met by the student during their four years in high school, they are not eligible to participate in Division I or II.
