MISSION STATEMENT OF MIDDLE SCHOOL ATHLETICS

The goal of middle school athletics is to serve as a laboratory for lessons learned from the home and in the

  • classroom. We promote:

Physical, mental and emotional health

The connections between the student athlete, and his/her school

Academic success

Sportsmanship and respect from our athletes, coaches, and spectators

Lifelong attitudes of dedication, hard work, team work, sportsmanship, respect for authority, and pride in self, team, school and community.

MISSION STATEMENT OF MIDDLE SCHOOL ATHLETICS

To achieve these goals we encourage our student to participate in our interscholastic programs and to commit themselves to upholding a code of conduct that supports fun, fair, and safe play for all.

We expect that all schools and coaches will supersede the goal of winning with the goal of participation and that all schools and coaches will work to ensure quality-playing time for all members of their team.

SCHOOLS TO WATCH

Developmental Responsiveness: Inter-Scholastic Sports with no “cuts”

  • Rationale: Every season there is a sport offered where any student

that is interested in the sport may participate on the team. This allows students to try a sport they may otherwise never know if they had an interest. Social Equity:

  • Rationale: We believe these programs allow our students
  • pportunities to be recognized in multiple ways. Students have the

ability to be involved in the school and be recognized for their efforts even beyond the classroom.
