JJ – Student Activities (Cocurricular and Extracurricular)

The goal of the Cherry Creek School District educational program shall be to develop to the highest level possible the individual potential of each student. One important method which should be employed by staff in achieving this goal is to provide opportunities at all levels, but particularly at the high school level, for constructive opportunities on an intra- and inter-school basis. However, participation in such activities shall be a privilege-not a right. The high school interscholastic athletic/activity program shall be one part of this total staff effort. This policy shall provide general guidance to staff and participants in the organization and implementation of the athletic/activity program. Overall supervision and direction of the high school interscholastic athletic/activity program shall come under executive director of secondary education. The principal of each building shall appoint an athletic/activity director to serve the school and to work in close cooperation with the office of the executive director of secondary education and league affiliates to promote the betterment of athletics/activities within the school district. Each building athletic/activity director shall:
  1. Periodically evaluate the nature, procedures and regulations of the interscholastic athletic/activity program
  2. Interpret district, league and state policies and enforce procedures and regulations concerning the athletic/activity programs
  3. Inform parents, students and teachers of athletic/activity procedures and regulations
  4. Make available to interested individuals an up-to-date copy of the Cherry Creek School District Interscholastic Athletic/Activity Handbook.
Cherry Creek high schools as members of the Colorado High School Activities Association (CHSAA) shall support the concept, constitution and by-laws of this organization as they pertain to high school athletic/activity policies. Athletic/activity procedures and regulations shall be governed by the Interscholastic Activity Handbook, Centennial League policies and the CHSAA Handbook. Athletic/activity programs shall be considered for addition to present programs upon acceptance by the Centennial League and CHSAA as an approved interscholastic sport or activity. All provisions of this policy shall be communicated appropriately to staff, students and parents.
