Welcome to our world, “The Other Side of Education”. The Office of Interscholastic Athletics of Prince George's County Public Schools (PGCPS) believes that interscholastic athletics is a way to achieve a balanced educational program for our students. As we all know athletic competition, by its nature, will contribute to greater student awareness of self-discipline, a growth in emotional maturity, and an increasing realization of the worth of the individual. Students will also realize that participation in athletics is not only a privilege, but is also an honor that requires responsibility for maintaining one’s academic standing in the classroom and for maintaining a high standard of conduct.

Eligibility Requirements
There are academic requirements for participation in sports. All student athletes must have a 2.0 GPA at the end of each quarter. Eligibility for the fall sports season will be based on the student’s fourth quarter GPA earned at the end of the prior school year. Incoming 9th graders are automatically eligible to participate in the fall sports season until the first quarter grading period is completed and a minimum 2.0 GPA is reflected on their report card and in Synergy.
