State Board of Education Rule R7-208 as mandated by the Arizona State Legislature requires that each school district must have in place a "No Pass No Play" policy.  The Peoria Unified School District views this policy as a tool for motivating student athletes to be successful in their academic subjects.  District policy requires the following:

• Student athletes receive a weekly grade check to determine their eligibility to participate in athletic competitions.
• A student must receive a passing grade in all enrolled classes on the weekly grade check preceding the contest or performance.
• When a student's grade falls at or below 65% (+or- 2%), the student must be warned of potential ineligibility.  Warning of potential ineligibility must take place before ineligibility is declared.
• Ineligibility is declared on Friday and the student is ineligible beginning the following Monday.
• Students are ineligible until they earn a passing grade.
• Student athletes with an Individual Education Plan or 504 accommodations must continue to make adequate progress toward achieving their goals to be eligible to participate.
