Academics

IN THE PREVIOUS GRADING TERM: 
Students must have earned a minimum 2.0 GPA.
Students did not fail more than one class.

NOTE: An Incomplete (I) counts as an F until a grade has been posted. Grades in double-blocked
classes count twice. Grades in concurrent enrollment courses count quadruple since the course is
worth an entire high school credit. (This means a D or F would count as TWO D’s or F’s in a
double-blocked class and count as FOUR D’s or F’s in a concurrent enrollment class.)

IN THE PARTICIPATING SEASON SEMESTER:
Students must be enrolled in credit-bearing courses totaling a minimum of 2.5 credits per semester for 10 period schools, and 2.0 credits per semester for 7-period schools.

DO ONLINE CLASSES COUNT?
Yes, but the student/parent must provide proof of enrollment including course enrollment dates & credit amount per class.

WHAT ABOUT HOMESCHOOLED STUDENTS?
Homeschooled students must have an active Homeschooling Affidavit on file and be able to document progress in their homeschool curriculum.

DOES RELEASE TIME (SEMINARY) COUNT?
No, only courses that earn credit toward graduation can count for UHSAA eligibility purposes.

NOTE: Incoming 9th grade students who wish to participate in a fall UHSAA sport/activity begin the year with
a “clean slate” and cannot be excluded from participation due to 4th term grades from their 8th grade year.

UHSAA Letter for UHSAA Eligibility with the Opening of Deseret Peak High

Date: 4 October 2024
Subject: Tooele County School District Request for UHSAA Eligibility
Attn: UHSAA Executive Staff

Given that Tooele County School District has changed existing boundaries due to the opening of Deseret Peak High School in the fall of 2025, we are requesting that the following proposal be used to determine UH SAA athletic eligibility for students currently enrolled at Deseret Peak, Grantsville, Stansbury, and Tooele High School.
Deseret Peak, Grantsville, Stansbury, and Tooele High School students should receive athletic eligibility with no restrictions at their new boundary school even if they have established first entry at their current school. This should be considered the same as a full family move. Once the choice is made and eligibility is established the UHSAA Transfer rule comes into effect.
We request that this one-time waiver of UHSAA eligibility rules be valid until 23 May 2025.
Any other student who receives a boundary exception to enroll at a Tooele County School District School and who has established their UHSAA eligibility at another member school is subject to the UHSAA transfer of eligibility rules and must work with that organization to transfer their eligibility. This stipulation refers to any level of participation. Thank you for your continued support and attention to athletic participation.
Thank you for your continued support of high school athletics and activities. 

Sincerely,

Melissa Rich, TCSD School Board President
Dr. Mark Ernst, Ed.D., Superintendent of Schools
Matthew Parker, Deseret Peak High School Principal

FAN GUIDELINES FOR HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC EVENTS

Thank you for supporting our amazing student-athletes. To make our events safe and enjoyable for athletes and spectators, the following guidelines must be followed:

1. Please contact the high school for ticketing information. Please be aware that many of the high school events are cashless.

2. No re-entry allowed. Please plan accordingly to ensure you have everything you may need for the duration of the event.

3. Junior high and elementary students must enter the event with a responsible adult.

4. Sports balls or wheeled toys (such as scooters, skateboards, and similar) are not allowed into the school, the stadium, or the gyms. Authorized mobility devices (like wheelchairs) are allowed.

5. Bags may be subject to search.

The Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 directed the USDA to establish nutrition standards for all foods and beverages sold to students in school during the school day, including foods sold through school fundraisers. The standards provide a special exemption for infrequent fundraisers not meeting the nutrition standards. Local education agencies may hold specifically exempted fundraisers up to three times per year per site, each lasting up to five consecutive school days. Exempt fundraisers may not be held during meal service in the food service area.

1. Smart Snack Compliant Items Fundraising events that are smart snack compliant can be done without prior approval. Use the free Smart Snacks Product Calculator located at foodplanner.healthiergeneration.org. Enter nutrition label information, and the approval or denial will be generated.

2. Non-Smart Snack Compliant Items Fundraising events that are not smart snack compliant need to get prior approval. Fill out and submit a TCSD Fundraiser Exemption Form to the CNP Office, then obtain approval of the exemption form prior to the event start date.

3. Steps to Fundraise with Smart Snack compliant foods.

      1. Gather pictures of the item(s), nutrition label, and smart snack calculator approval calculation (if applicable; Fruits and Vegetables do not need to have item picture, nutrition label, or smart snack calculator)
      2. File the three documents above in school records for three years plus the current year.
      3. These fundraisers may happen for as long or however often as the school would like.
      4. Have a great Fundraiser.

4. Steps to Fundraise with NON-Smart Snack compliant foods.
      1. Fill out and submit the Fundraising Exemption form to the Child Nutrition Office. (form can be found in business resources in iVisions)
      2. Three fundraisers per site, each school year may be approved.
      3. Upon approval of the exempt fundraiser, Have a great fundraiser!
      4. If the fundraiser is denied, the fundraiser must not proceed.
