What is the Ohio High School Athletic Association ruling about athletic eligibility and will it affect my child?
Effective November 1, 2002, any student changing schools AFTER he/she has either attended ONE day of the ninth grade in a previous school OR has participated in a scrimmage or game for the previous school, may need to sit out one year of eligibility before becoming eligible to play once again. Incoming 9th grade students who have not attended in any other school or participated in a scrimmage or game and students who were approved for Interdistrict Open Enrollment for 2008-2009, and are approved to continue their education in the same school for 2009-2010, are not affected by the ruling. This does not affect students below the ninth grade. This does not affect transfers made for the ninth grade if the student has not yet been in a scrimmage or game nor has he/she begun school in the previous school. If a student transfers into any CPS school after the 9th grade and wishes to participate in athletics, he/she should contact the athletic director immediately when enrollment is completed a
