General Sports Information
Athletics is an integral part of the development of students in Middle School. It is the Mission of the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District Athletic Department to inspire each student to extraordinary achievement
During each season of sport, the school's athletic department may ask for donations to contribute to the expenses of uniforms, equipment, and officials. While any donation is appreciated, the suggested donation amount is $100 per sport. The California Constitution’s free school guarantee prohibits charging students any fee, charge, or deposit for extracurricular, credit, or non-credit activities that are part of the District’s or school site’s educational program. Though many programs request parent/guardian donations, which are permissible, these donations are not mandatory. Donations may be made through the school’s webstore found on the school’s website or with cash or check at the school site. Donations are not refunded. All donations will be made to the General Athletics Account. Donations in any amount are very much appreciated and will be equitably distributed to athletic teams in compliance with Title IX.
Eligibility
Academic Requirements
All students who wish to participate in our athletic programs must meet the academic requirement by maintaining a 2.0 overall GPA.
Physical Requirements
All students participating in sports must complete the LVJUSD physical form OR the CIF Preparticipation Physical Forms PRIOR to trying out or participating in open gyms. Once a student turns in their paperwork, they will be cleared to participate. Forms can be turned in to the office or emailed to the CMS Athletic Director, Andrea Hilton, at ahilton@lvjusd.org. NOTE: Physical forms remain valid for one year from the date of the physician's signature.
Parent Support
Each sporting team needs a parent coordinator to assist the coach with car pooling schedules, end-of-the-season party, and other clerical duties. Please consider volunteering, your participation is much appreciated! Basketball (B/G), volleyball (G), and wrestling (co-ed) parents must volunteer for a home game shift to collect money at the door. More information will be forthcoming.
