Middle School Athletics and Donations
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 should be made through the school’s webstore found on the school’s website. 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, Sports Physicals, and Registration
Each trimester, students must earn a 2.0 GPA and maintain good academic standing and attendance throughout the athletic season. Activity eligibility is used for participation in athletics, Leadership, as an ASB student representative, and a variety of other student activities. A physical form signed by a doctor is required for all sports before participation is allowed and is good for one calendar year. An athlete must attend 50% of class periods during the school day in order to participate in a game or practice held on that day (unless excused for a portion of the day due to a medical appointment, etc.). Students who are serving a suspension on the day of a game cannot play in that game..
