CYO Student Athlete Criteria

It is important to be aware of the criteria of a Student Athlete, as it may serve as a motivator for your child’s academic and athletic endeavors over the course of 7^th and 8^th grade.

The following criteria must be met in order to be considered a Student Athlete at the conclusion of your child’s 8^th grade year:

• A student must maintain a 93 or above average which is cumulative for 7^th grade and for the first two (2) semesters of 8^th grade.
• A student must participate in a minimum of two (2) CYO sports per year during his/her 7th grade and 8th grade. One sport per year must be on an “A” or Varsity level.
• A student who is suspended from CYO sports or from his/her school during 7th or 8th grade is ineligible.

Student Athlete Awards will be presented to 8^th Grade students at the Annual CYO Awards Banquet. Parents will be notified in advance of the Banquet if their child will be receiving a Student Athletic Award.
