Student Life

Participation in co-curricular activities is an important part of your educational experiences. They contribute toward the development of a "well-rounded" individual and can be a source of great pleasure. Your participation in activities becomes a part of your permanent record.

The activities program at Saucon Valley provides each student an opportunity to follow interests that have been aroused and to encourage new ones. A carefully selected activities program will provide opportunities for self-expression, leadership, service, and enrichment in a regular instructional program. School rules and regulations apply to all activities and clubs, even when away from school such as athletic events, field trips, etc.

Students may select from several of the following:

Intramurals:
The school will have planned intramural activities throughout the school year based on student interest. All approved programs must have faculty supervision.

Saucon Valley High School Athletic/Activities Rules:

1. Any student who completes a PIAA eligibility/physical form and rostered with any athletic team automatically agrees to adhere to the Student/Athlete Athletic Policy set forth by Saucon Valley Athletic Office. This policy is on file in the Athletic Office or can be found on the district website.

2. Any student representing his/her school in an interscholastic event must be in school by 8:00 a.m. on the day of the event or be legally excused by the principal.

3. Any student who receives an over-night, in-school, or out-of-school suspension is automatically ineligible for any co-curricular activities, including athletics, during the period of the suspension. Any student receiving an in-school suspension is not allowed to participate in after-school events.

4. Uniforms and equipment distributed to players is property of the Saucon Valley School District. Players are responsible for the proper upkeep and care of all uniforms and equipment while in their possession. At the conclusion of the season, athletes are responsible for returning all equipment to their coaches during designated times in the condition in which it was distributed. Players are responsible for full compensation of any damaged or lost materials at their replacement cost. Failure to turn in equipment at the designated time or fully reimburse the school district for lost or damaged materials will result in suspension from all athletics until compensation has been secured and/or a referral to the district magistrate.
