We believe that interscholastic sports can be used to develop the qualities of citizenship, character, responsibility, self-discipline, respect, and commitment to others while teaching the importance of sportsmanship and the value of teamwork. It is our firm belief that winning and losing are important only within the context of how the game is played and how individuals represent themselves and their school under the pressure of competition. The emphasis of the interscholastic sports program at the Modified Level is on learning and developing the genuine interest in and enjoyment for the sport through good instruction, sound skills development, and participation. Sports at the Modified Level provide an opportunity for young students to practice and play as a team in competition with others and, in the process, develop self-esteem, their own personal identity, and spirit of commitment and dedication. Interscholastic sports at the Junior Varsity and Varsity Levels are intended to reward students who have clearly proven their ability, demonstrated a strong and on-going commitment to the team and the sport, and have consistently represented themselves and the school in the true spirit of good sportsmanship.
