Summer and Non-Completed Suspension Policy
Any six/eighteen week NDHSAA suspension which hasn’t run its full course during the athletic school year or any NDHSAA infraction during the summer shall result in a one game suspension the subsequent school year. The suspension shall be in the first extra-curricular activity in which a student or athlete participates. NOTE: For the suspension to count, a student or athlete must finish out the season (in the activity you received the suspension) in good standing. In addition, and NDSAA suspension will result in a one event lost (next extra-curricular activity in which you participate.)
NOTE: The above statement is for instances when a suspension doesn’t overlap a season or when no events have been lost due to a NDHSAA suspension. Notification of the violation can occur in two ways:
1. Law enforcement can notify the school.
2. Parents, patrons, students, and other adults may notify the school of a violation. Upon notification of a violation, contact will be made to the party and his/her parents by phone and mail. At that time, the suspension will be put in place unless the parties appeal or request a meeting to discuss the suspension
