Athletic Program Eligibility

The athletic program offers increased opportunities for improving playing skills, developing physical vigor, promoting friendship, and learning good sportsmanship. For the student body, the athletic program provides opportunities for developing school morale, for being gracious hosts to visiting students, and for exercising the qualities of fair play and courtesy.
