In order for a student "to be eligible for athletic competition when begins during the second semester (February 1 to June 30) during the 9th grade or higher, a pupil must have passed the equivalent of 12.5 % of the credits (or 15 academic credits) required by the State of NJ for graduation (i.e. the student must have passing grades in at least 6 courses) at the close of the preceding semester (January 31)."
