All students are allowed to participate in these events, however, they cost $125 per activity. Yamhill-Carlton and the high school in Gaston often combine teams because of the low amount of students participating. If a student receives a grade of a D or an F, that student must attend one hour of study tables per week until the grade is up. If they do not attend, they will be ineligible for the next competition.
