Student-athletes must have passed at least 5 credit classes (for a total of 2.5 credits) in the prior semester and maintain satisfactory progress toward graduation.
OSAA (Oregon School Activities Association) eligibility policy requires that all Fall athletes (excluding incoming freshmen) must pass at least five (5) credit classes in the spring semester or take summer school make-up classes to be eligible for Fall sports.
OSAA RULE: All students must maintain satisfactory progress toward graduation by meeting the following standards:
- 4.5 CREDITS earned before the 1st day of 10TH GRADE
- 10 CREDITS earned before the 1st day of 11TH GRADE

The North Clackamas School District Board of Directors has implemented more stringent eligibility rules for athletics and activities. These requirements are in addition to standards implemented by the Oregon Schools Activities Association (OSAA), the state agency governing athletics and activities. North Clackamas School District requires a 2.0-grade point average, with no grade of an "F" on the report card. Students who do not meet the additional District requirements may become eligible to participate by:
- Transferring credits from an accredited summer or night school institution to correct a grading deficit
- Appealing his/her ineligibility status by completing an Activity Eligibility Appeal Request with the building Principal
- Spending one semester on academic probation ("plan of assistance" instead of losing eligibility). Academic probation lasts through the athletic/activities season during the semester of participation. (NOTE: Students who have fallen below a 2.0 G.P.A. may not exceed two consecutive semesters on academic probation).
