    a. The student is an enrolled student of the high school, but all or some of the  courses/credits are not taken at the local high school (virtual, postsecondary, work study, etc.),                                                                                                                                                        

    b. All credits attempted/earned are placed on the high school transcript, 

    c. All classes must be completed by the high school’s close of the semester, as per By-Law   2.3.11, in order for those classes/credits to be considered toward activity eligibility.

    a. The student is an enrolled student of the public high school of residence, as defined in By-Law 3.10, and is taking a minimum of two credit-bearing, seat-time classes for a minimum of 1.0 units of credit at the high school, and

    b. The high school administration confirms after a full academic review that the student is further enrolled in courses taken outside of the school which bring the student up to the academic credit requirements outlined in ByLaw 2.3.2 (80%). Each local school will determine its own oversight, standards, and criteria for approval of such outside courses/credits, as well as the procedures to determine success/credit confirmation for academic eligibility for the current and following semester. It is not necessary that such confirmed credits be placed on the high school transcript, but may be listed, at the school’s discretion.
