I don't think you'd be out of line to email her teachers and ask about any missing assignments. I do think it's going too far for you to ask the teachers about extra credit. Your DD should be doing that on her own if she wants to stay on the squad. She can ask her teachers before or after class if she can't manage to get in there before or after school. Once you know what the options are, you can certainly push her to get these things done. But in the final analysis, it's her choice whether to follow through or not.

I'm certainly not opposed to helping her out, but she really, really needs to learn to do this stuff on her own.

She is really close, what a shame.
This is probably going to sound harsh …

Having a daughter myself who is heavily involved in extra-curricular activities, I know where you are coming from.
