The Athletic Council, within the limits of the adopted School Board policies, serves as liaison between the athletic programs and Board. The Council may make recommendations to the Board. It may not usurp the powers and duties delegated to the Principal, nor may it supersede the action and power of the Board of Directors. The Council shall be composed of the following representing members: Principal, Athletic Director, Two Board of Education members (appointed by the Board of Directors’ President), Two Head Coaches, and the Superintendent. The Principal, in all matters pertaining to the interscholastic athletic relations of his/her school, is responsible to the PIAA. He/she may delegate some of those powers, but such delegation shall not relieve him/her of responsibility for any infraction by his/her school, of the Constitution and By-Laws of the PIAA. The Athletic Director is directly responsible to the principal. The primary responsibility of the athletic director is the administration and supervision of the interscholastic athletic program. The athletic director’s duties will be those described in his/her job description and any other designations. He/she will provide the leadership necessary for the day-to-day operation of the athletic department. All Head Coaches shall be responsible to the Athletic Director for the total operation of their respective sports programs. Head coaches will be responsible for normal duties required of interscholastic competition, those duties described within the Athletic Handbook for Coaches and/or any duties delegated by the Athletic Director and/or Principal. 3 ATHLETE INFORMATION Eligibility of Athletes and Insurance Requirements In order for a student to compete in interscholastic athletics, including cheerleading, he/she must fulfill all the requirements set forth by the PIAA and the Lakeview School District. This includes compliance with specifications set forth in the Lakeview School District extracurricular participation policy. In all cases, the Administration retains the right to use its discretion in evaluating cases; a student’s past record, attitude and willingness to cooperate in correcting behavior problems will be considered, when appropriate. Prior to participation in any/all interscholastic activities, the District Parent/Student Assurance form at the end of the Student Athlete/Parent Handbook, a Concussion and Sudden Cardiac Arrest Acknowledgement, and Coach’s Rules form must be signed by both the athlete and parent/guardian. The coach must keep a copy and forward a copy of each form to the Principal and Athletic Director. *Consent of Parent/Guardian Athletes involved with a sport (grades 7-12) are required to submit the following forms prior to participation in practices and/or games: 1. PIAA Comprehensive Initial Pre-Participation Physical Evaluation (CIPPE) - the student and parent/guardian is required to complete Sections 1-5 and Section 6 by an Authorized Medical Examiner. Upon completion, Sections 1-6 must be submitted to the Athletic Director for retention by the school. The CIPPE may not be performed earlier than June 1st and shall be effective, regardless of when performed during a school year, until the next May 31st. (see Sports Physical Exam section) 2. Insurance information – an insurance form and copy of a valid insurance card must be completed and returned with parent/guardian signature to the Business Office by the due date of each participating sport’s season. Athletes turning in insurance forms late will be assessed a one-day “no practice” penalty for each date the form is late. Academic Eligibility In order to maintain athletic eligibility on a weekly basis during his/her athletic season, a student must be: 1. Passing a total of four (4) full-credit subjects, or the equivalent each week during his/her athletic season. 2. Failing no more than 1 core class (English, Math, Science or History or any MCCC course) or more than 2 electives (or any combination thereof) Ex. Fails math and 2 electives, still eligible Fails math and science, ineligible Fails 3 electives, ineligible 3. Any student who has been ineligible for the week must attend a minimum of (2) tutoring sessions during the Advisory period with the teacher(s) instructing the failed course(s). Failure to attend tutoring sessions will result in the extension of ineligibility for an additional week. In addition, students who are ineligible for 2 weeks in a row will be suspended from the team. Students who are ineligible for 3 weeks during a season will be removed from the team. Students must have opportunities each week to improve their grades. A student who is declared academically ineligible on an eligibility report will be ineligible for a period of one week (from Sunday to Saturday) and in that time must bring his/her grades up to passing or he/she will remain ineligible for interscholastic competition until that condition is 4 met. Practice is permissible and when possible and appropriate, extra help/time should be given to improve the student athlete’s academic standing. If a student is not meeting all eligibility requirements at the end of a grading period (end of nine weeks), said student will be ineligible for the first fifteen (15) school days of the next grading period. At the end of the school year, the student’s final credits in the student’s subjects rather than the student’s credits for the last grading period shall be used to determine eligibility status for the next grading period.

("PIAA"), the PIAA District 10 Committee, and/or Michael Ferry (the PIAA District 10 Golf Tournament Director) to permit them to participate in the PIAA District X golf championship tournament on Friday, October 3, 2020, even though they have not qualified to so participate. For the fall sports season in 2020, PIAA District X reduced the number of students who could participate in the tournament to reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection. While Plaintiffs would have qualified for the tournament last year, the revisions in qualifiers for the 2020 tournament leave them out of this year’s tournament. The decision made by PIAA was not made lightly since PIAA seeks to provide opportunities to participate. However, it was made consistent with the recommendations of PIAA’s Sports Medicine Advisory Committee, its Golf Steering Committee, and PIAA’s concerns over permitting events likely to promote the spread of COVID-19. Under applicable law, the decision is not reversible unless it constituted arbitrary 1 Case 1:20-cv-00290-SPB Document 3 Filed 10/01/20 Page 2 of 13 and capricious discrimination, which it did not.
