Athletics
The major goal of an interscholastic athletic program is the same as for any other educational program—to provide youth with the opportunity to develop to their maximum potential. In this case, the program provides for development of physical and mental skills through competitive athletics, which enhances students’ personal and social skills. Competitive athletics generates a pride in achievement; an appreciation of team effort, hard work, and fair play; respect for rules of the game; and respect for the abilities of others. It should be noted that participation in athletic activities is a PRIVILEGE offered to and earned by students.

All student athletes must receive a physical prior to athletic participation. A physical form, signed by the performing physician, must be submitted to the school before a student is declared eligible. The form below is an example, but physicians may supply their own form as well. The physical must be dated April 1, 2018 or later and they are only valid until the end of the school year.
