Athletics
CCSU ATHLETICS PHILOSOPHY
- Athletics should provide a wholesome opportunity to develop physical fitness, skill, individual development, and social development. These activities teach students’ lifetime values such as commitment, discipline, hard work, leadership, teamwork, and physical fitness, all of which are the foundation for academic success. Participation in athletic activities contributes to the physical, emotional and social health of our students and promotes a sense of unity and cooperation among athletes, the student body, and the CCSU communities.
- Just as the school expects the best from its athletes, the students can expect the best that the school can provide in the way of staff and facilities to promote a valuable learning experience. Participation is encouraged. CCSU Athletics acknowledges the importance of academics and athletics as partners in nurturing the physical, mental, and social growth of its students.
- At the Middle level and Junior Varsity level the development of skills, understanding of the game, and conditioning will be stressed while encouraging a positive winning attitude. At the Varsity level, winning will be stressed , not on an “at any cost” basis, but rather as the natural result of a superior work ethic, positive attitude, skill ability and a good basic knowledge of the game.

Fall Sports: Girl's and Boy's Soccer, Cross Country, MS Volleyball
Winter Sports: Girl's and Boy's Basketball
Spring Sports: Softball, Track & Field
Additionally, if we do not have a team here, such as football, the VPA allows a student to join the team at another school in the area. Students can also play an individual sport (cross country, wrestling) independently with the option to train with another area school. We currently have students playing ice hockey, volleyball, football, baseball and lacrosse with other schools per these agreements.

All students must register for athletics through the Arbiter Sports Registration Portal. Physicals are required each year for every student who will be playing on any middle school or high school sports team or club. A medical provider needs to fill out the following form (Medical Provider Signature Page) which then needs to be uploaded into Arbiter Sports.
All forms must be completed before the first day of practice. Registration may include medical information, consent forms, and emergency contacts.

Attendance Policy
PARTICIPATION IN ACTIVITIES ON A DAY OF OR AFTER AN ABSENCE - In order to attend or participate in any extracurricular activity, a student is expected to attend school for the full day, on the day of the activity. The student will not be allowed to resume participation in activities until they have attended a full day of school. If the absence occurs right before a vacation, holiday or weekend, then the student would be ineligible to participate in activities the day following the absence as well. This includes but is not limited to athletics, dances, drama events, musical events and club activities. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the administration in advance.
Co-curricular Sports Eligibility Policy
The Co-curricular Sports Eligibility Policy at Danville School is a system designed to encourage and support high school athletes who are struggling in one or more classes.
Students should be referred if they are averaging below a 2 in any class or are struggling with a class in general. The Eligibility Policy is not designed to handle individual late or missing assignments; for those situations, teachers should still refer students to activity callback or afterschool callback. This policy can also be used to support students who are suffering from concussions or other sports injuries.
