KMS Athletic Participation
The Kerman Unified School District requires all participants in extra-curricular activities to maintain a 2.0 GPA or better in the previous 5-week grading period. Kerman Middle School students who have below a 2.0 GPA or receive an “F” on the most recent progress report card will not be allowed to try-out, or if already on the team, will be removed. Every student who wishes to participate in any sport must fill out the required forms online (Family I.D.), this includes uploading a current physical exam.
You will need to create an account on Family I.D., this is how you are cleared for sports! (link below)

Tardy Policy - please don't be late to school!
Tardiness is disruptive to the educational process and deprives other students in the classroom of valuable instructional time. Disciplinary action will be taken on students with excessive tardies. (Refer to KUSD policy 5144.1). A tardy can only be excused due to illness, doctor's appointment, family funeral, or school activity. Any other reason is considered an unexcused tardy. If a student is reporting to school late, he/she will report to the Attendance Office with a parent/guardian call to the attendance secretary or a note from the parent/guardian. The student must sign in, and the attendance secretary will issue a tardy pass to the student. An excused tardy can only be issued by office attendance personnel.
Dress Code Policy
Please review the dress code in the handbook. A "dress code cheat sheet" link can be found below in the related files. Students who are not following the Kerman Unified Dress Code will be referred to the administration office. They will need to fix their dress code violation before being allowed to return to class.
