Athletics
Yamhill Carlton High School participates in baseball, boys' basketball, girls' basketball, soccer, cheer, cross country, football, rugby, softball, track and field, wrestling, and volleyball. All students are allowed to participate in these events, although each activity costs $125. Yamhill-Carlton and the high school in Gaston often combine teams because of the low number of students participating. If a student receives a grade of 1 or 2, that student must attend one hour of study tables[7] per week until the grade is up. If they do not attend, they will be ineligible for the next competition.
