You can call the high school athletic office to get the answer to that. I have not ran into that situation in 8 years of coaching.

To answer the home schooled students eligibility:
Home school kids are not eligible unless they also come to the high school for at least one class a day. The same would apply for the middle school football program. |

Now every parent has to be inconvenienced? is there potentially a school bus that can take them? |

When there were 3 middle schools (Elston, Barker, and Krueger), Elston was the centralized location of the three middle schools. The facilities, for football, at Elston were far superior to Krueger or Barker. An activities bus transports players from Barker and Krueger to Elston after school, reducing the burden on parents. In 2013 the locker room was completely refurbished by former middle school football coach Aaron Strelinski. Taking his own time over an entire summer to make our locker room nothing less than awesome. You can check out our locker room on the MCAS web site. http://www.mcas.k12.in.us/Page/7692 Below are several items that make Elston the perfect site for the middle school football program: Concessions stand on the field Home and away bleachers Superior locker room facilities with coaches office Weight room Storage area for field and training equipment Electronic score board Irrigated football field Football field is fenced in and can be secured when not being utilized Large parking area for home games |
