If you have any questions about these visits, contact Mrs. Williamson in the Counseling Office. NCAA Eligibility: Do you have a son or daughter that is thinking about playing college athletics? There is a ton of information that you should know so that they are eligible to play. See the attached Eligibility Center document for more information and to sign up for a Webinar that will be held on November 7th. 9th Grade Students: Wayne State University is conducting a study that is open to all 9th grade students to be a part of.
