Newtonbrook has a very active student body.  There are many fun and exciting activities, clubs and teams suited to a variety of interests.  The more involved a student is in school life the more connected he/she will feel to the school which leads to greater enjoyment.  Student gatherings, clubs and teams require the sponsorship of a Newtonbrook staff member.  Students MUST purchase a SAC card to participate in clubs, teams and extra-curricular activities.

Newtonbrook S.S. offers students many co-curricular opportunities to enhance their educational experience.  However, the successful fulfillment of their academic requirements has the highest priority.  To participate in any co-curricular activity that requires a major commitment of out-of-class time or missed classes, a student must:

• Be considered “full time” and carry the minimum of 3 academic credits

• Earn at least 50% in at least two subjects as of the most recent report card on which marks are recorded. For co-curricular participation in the Fall season the previous June report card marks will be used as the benchmark (marks earned at summer school will replace the June failure).

• Demonstrate regular attendance and punctuality in all classes and meet all course requirements (assignments, projects, essays, tests, presentations, etc.)

• Not have any unexplained absences or lates.

• Be in compliance with Newtonbrook’s Code of Respect & Behaviour

Academic eligibility is officially reviewed during the school reporting periods; however, it may be reviewed at the discretion of the staff advisor, teacher, parent or administration.

The staff advisor for each co-curricular activity is responsible for informing the student of their “ineligibility”.  Students who are deemed ineligible for participation have the right to an appeal.
