Revised Athletic Lettering Policy
Students and Parents :
Taylor ISD Athletics has updated the current Athletic Lettering Policy. This policy has been revised to better serve the student athletes of Taylor High School and to encourage their continued efforts to excel in athletics. It is our hope that this policy will challenge and reward the efforts of those students who choose to participate in the athletic programs offered by Taylor ISD, and that upon receiving this award, they may gain a sense of pride and accomplishment. This policy will also be retroactive to include those students who would currently meet the requirements set forth by this updated policy.
We would encourage any student that feels they have met the requirements of this updated policy to contact the Athletic Department so that we may verify that the guidelines of the policy have been met by the athlete.
The Taylor I.S.D. Athletic Handbook contains a general statement of the administrative regulations governing the overall athletic program. Provisions of this Athletic Handbook may be expanded, modified, or revoked only by actions of the Athletic Director, Superintendent, or the Board of Education. If any of the provisions of this Athletic Handbook conflict with federal or state laws, and regulations, or Board policy, those provisions are superseded by applicable law or Board policy. The provisions of this Athletic Handbook are severable, and the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision will not affect the validity, legality, or enforceability of the other provisions.
