Regulations Related to TAPPS Participation

Prince of Peace Christian School is a member of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) and comes under their rules and regulations related to participation in athletic, academic and fine arts competitions.

Carefully review the TAPPS bylaws, section 102, Eligibility of Foreign Students for more information. www.tapps.net/ByLaws.html

In order to immediately compete in varsity level TAPPS events, international students in grades 9-12 must be living with a family member (affidavit from blood relative required). Students in grades 9-12 must be approved by TAPPS prior to participation. If a student is enrolled at POPCS and is found ineligible to participate in TAPPS competitions, that student will not be permitted to participate in academic, fine arts and athletic competitions sponsored by TAPPS. Should the host family change, a new Foreign Student Application must be completed and submitted by the new host family and parents immediately. Eligibility may be affected.
