There have been many questions about eligibility and transferring school since we have formed a new coop with Warwick. Here is some information regarding eligibility in activities:
In March of 2026, the NDHSAA amended the re-transfer rule for HS Activities. It now says the following: A student who has previously transferred from one high school to another high school may re-transfer to their original high school of eligibility and be immediately fully (varsity) eligible if the re-transfer is made at the beginning of the school year. This provision may be exercised one-time per student during grades 9-12.
-These regulations affect our students beginning the last day of school this year.
-The term “Original high school” means the school a student attends in the 9th grade.
With the dissolution of the FWM co-op and the creation of the Minnewaukan-Warwick co-op, here are examples of how this will affect our current students in the sports of Basketball, Volleyball and Cross Country if they choose to attend a school other than Minnewaukan:
Class of 2027 – If you transfer to another school at any time, you will be ineligible to play at the varsity level for one calendar year.
Class of 2028 - If you transfer to another school at any time, you will be ineligible to compete at the varsity level for one calendar year. If you transfer and decide to return to MPS, you will be varsity eligible at the beginning of the next school year.Class of 2029 - If you transfer to another school at any time, you will be ineligible to compete at the varsity level for one calendar year. If you transfer and decide to return to MPS, you will be varsity eligible at the beginning of the next school year.
Class of 2030, 2031,2032…………YOUR ELIGIBILITY IS BASED ON WHERE YOU START YOUR 9TH GRADE YEAR.
A. If you start your 9th grade year at MPS, there is no change in your eligibility. If you transfer to another school at any time, you will be ineligible to compete at the varsity level for one calendar year. If you transfer and decide to return to MPS, you will be varsity eligible at the beginning of the next school year.
B. If you start your 9th grade year at another school (DL, FW, etc), you are immediately eligible for varsity competition at that school. If you want to return to MPS, anytime after you start, you are ineligible for varsity competition for one calendar year.
If you have questions, please contact Mr. Dennis or Mrs. Lunde.
