SCIAA CHARTER SCHOOL AND ASD INFORMATION

 

PARTICIPATING WITH SCIAA

Contact the SCIAA office with a request to participate. Declare sport participation intentions (i.e. high school and/or middle school basketball, football etc…). Secure adequate facilities to host the following sports: basketball, volleyball, soccer, baseball and softball. Schools must be TSSAA/TMSAA members before becoming a part of SCIAA leagues.

Middle schools that complete this process after the month of May may not be eligible for post season play. Those schools may also have to complete their own schedule.  Please contact the coordinator of the various sports for additional details.

 

FEES & BENEFITS

Schools agree to abide by the rules and regulations of SCIAA.  Schools will receive access to coaches’ meetings/professional development, championships, awards, stadiums, game operation services, website and other SCIAA special events.

Fee is $500 per school.

Please note all fines must be settled before entering in to the next school year.

 

INSURANCE

Participation with the SCIAA does not include access to athletic insurance coverage. Please note that Charter Schools that co-op with SCS schools are still not covered by the SCS athletic insurance. SCS Risk Management can assist you with insurance vendor options if needed (901-416-1997).

 

OFFICIALS

Schools are responsible for the payment of TSSAA/TMSAA official assigning agent fees and game officials.  Officials will contact the schools the day of the game by 1pm.  Schools can also request access to arbitersports.com to view assigned officials for contests via the SCIAA Office.  If you have not received confirmation of your officials, please contact the assigning agent or the SCIAA immediately.

Payment is due the day of the contest.  If there are issues with your accounting systems that may prevent that, please contact the Assigning Agent for that sport (payments should not be received no later than 2 days post contest).  Schools are also responsible for assigning agent fees.  Failure to pay in a timely manner may result in the loss of assigned officials for your contests.

Beginning 2022-23,  Schools will be responsible for paying High School Football Officials.

 

ENTRY INTO GAMES

Charter School ID badges will allow you free entry in to all contests in which your school participates.  TSSAA ID Cards and/or Championship cards will allow you entry into all other regular and/or post season contests in accordance to the rules specified on the pass.  Schools may also purchase SCS badges for $30 from the SCS office of security on Monday, Wednesday and Friday using cash or school check only as another options for entry passes.  Charter/ASD schools should allow SCS employees with ID badges free entry in to all contests in which their school participates and vice versa.

 

SECURITY

Schools are responsible for providing adequate security at all home games and other after hour school events. SCS security will provide this service at a cost.  Please make a formal request by email.  Security will need at least a 72 hour notice if these requests will be done on an as needed basis; however we are prepared to do the entire year of events and can bill you all for these services.  Contact Sergeant Jeremy Brown (brownja1@scsk12.org) 901-416-0793 (office) and 901-828-5741 (cell) or Major Terrence Riley Office (901) 416-0367   Cell (901) 268-3370 (RILEYTF@scsk12.org)

SCS Security will provide regulations surrounding security guidelines:

The Shelby County School Sheriff’s Office recently made our SCS Safety & Security team aware that some charter schools have contracted with armed, plain clothes details to provide security at events, particularly athletics events.  This is cause for great concern at the SCSO.  Should an incident break out at an event, it would be difficult to tell security from civilians, which might result in tragic and irreparable harm.

SCS Safety & Security has asked me to remind our schools that when privately contracted security is at an event, they should be in uniform and, because statue strictly limits who may possess a firearm on campus, privately contracted security should be unarmed.

If adequate security measures are not met, schools may be subject to use SCS security at your own expense and/or loss usage of SCS facilities.             

 

TSSAA/TMSAA ELIGIBILITY

Most Charter/ASD schools are considered system-wide schools. Their territory or zone is the county in which they are in. Therefore, any student with an athletic record the past twelve months in a Shelby County school that transfers to your school is ineligible in that sport(s), by rule. The same would apply if a student-athlete leaves your school and goes to another school in the county.  If your school has a defined territory or zone please contact the TSSAA.

 

POWER SCHOOL ATHLETIC DATA TRACKING

Schools are responsible for entering all sport rosters into PowerSchool. These schools will be identified by SCIAA. Seasonal sport entries are due approximately one week after the TSSAA first date of competition.  SMS training will be provided.  Once student-athletes are entered into SMS by sport, the Athletic Director and the SCIAA can view information for each athlete such as, age, grade, GPA, transcript and transfers, attendance, conduct, and parental contact information along with the ability to double check TSSAA eligibility. If you have any additional questions regarding PS completion, please contact Lecia Schluterman 416-9949 or schlutermanl@scsk12.org.  Schools that do not use the PS system are required to submit academic data via a template that will be provided for you at a later date.

 

FACILITIES

Shelby County Schools is proud to support the community use of school facilities for rent to non-profit groups and organizations. The SCS Board Policy 7002 authorizes the short term rental of its facilities as deemed by the Board to be in the best interest of the district and community when facilities are not being used for school purposes. SCS makes available for rent auditoriums, gymnasium, stadiums, ball fields, multi-purpose rooms, classrooms, and much more.

Shelby County Schools is pleased to announce a new online facility request and rental system designed to provide a positive user experience for all. With the new system, reservation requests can be submitted easily and will be handled more efficiently. Renters will be able to access photos and descriptions, see real-time availability, get estimated quotes and pay online.

In partnering with Facilitron, Shelby County Schools has launched custom facility use sites for the district and each school – allowing facility use requests to be submitted at any time. You can view and request all district facilities at: https://www.facilitron.com/scs38112.

Moving forward, the only way to request use of a district facility is by creating a Facilitron account and submitting a request online.If you need any assistance setting up an account and/or in submitting a facility use request, you can contact Facilitron directly at: support@facilitron.com, or by calling them at: 800-272-2962 ext 1.
