ATHLETICS PROGRAM CORE VALUES
Excellence
By offering a variety of team experiences, we foster a culture of opportunity and discovery in which scholars gain practice at developing vision and showing courage to become positive impactful leaders. As scholars learn lessons in sportsmanship, teamwork, competition and how to win and lose gracefully, they develop a healthy life-style as well as a strong sense of self.Collaboration, Community, Integrity
These scholar experiences will help to positively develop students physically, mentally, socially and emotionally. Competitive activities also improve school spirit and help scholars develop and strengthen a sense of pride in community. Although scholar participation in athletic activities contributes to the development of individual critical thinking skills and emotional well-being, participation on teams is a community effort, and, therefore, a privilege. Scholars must recognize that this privilege carries with it responsibilities to self, family, teammates, team, Centennial Academy and the entire community of Heroes we represent.Eligibility Requirements
In order to do our best to ensure the safety and educative value for the children who participate in these school-sponsored activities, we require adherence to certain responsibilities and regulations as follows:- Academic Eligibility: All scholars must maintain a passing grade in all subjects in order to participate in co-curricular activities that might take them away from regular study, remediation, and/or tutoring opportunities.
- Attendance: The scholar must be in school 95% of the days enrolled. In order to participate in practices and games, the student must be present at school for the majority of the school day on the day in question. If a scholar has been absent and wishes to participate in activities, she/he must have the absence excused by receiving permission from the Associate Head of School.
- Behavior / Citizenship: Scholars must be in good disciplinary standing and abide by school rules and classroom expectations.
- Physicals: Athletic physicals are required on a yearly basis. The pre-participation Physical Examination Forms must be accepted by the School Nurse prior to any participation in school-sponsored activities. Centennial Academy uses the form provided by the Georgia High School Association, which must be completed by a licensed physician.
