Specific requirements regarding grades / discipline

[AndyH]

I have looked at several of the team manuals that are available (thanks for sharing) and we have modeled our new handbook on those. I have a couple of specific questions, though.

If your team has grade requirements, what are they specifically? (Does a student have to maintain a certain GPA, or are they allowed to have no F's, D's?) When does your team do the grade check? (Is it based on the previous quarter, semester, progress report, current progress?)

As for behavior, what do you do when a team member is doing fairly well (requiring extra supervision, but trying very hard) at the meetings, but has many days of ISS or OSS on his/her record? (Recently - since the season started in the fall.)

Some of these students are the ones who need the team the most, but there are also many difficulties with trying to keep them on the team. (Extra time away from schoolwork, representing the team, etc.)
