Students:  The Ag Class and Coding class during your study halls are considered extracurricular classes.  If you have failing grades in any class when eligibility is run each week, you will have to sit out of that class and go to your study hall class for that week.  If your grades are fine the next week, you may return to coding or Ag.  If your grades are failing a total of 3 weeks, you will be removed from the coding or Ag class.  So, your grades in your core classes of math, reading, language, writing, social studies, and science determine if you are able to participate in Ag or coding.  Keep those grades up!
