Code of Conduct

Participation in interscholastic athletics is a privilege, not a constitutionally protected right. The privilege of participation could be revoked for on-campus and off-campus misconduct. The school district rules and guidelines will be strictly enforced.

Athletic programs are optional and it is expected that all athletes, both boys and girls, will adhere to certain minimum standards of behavior and scholarship as established by the board, the building administration, and the coach.

Student athletes are not to do anything that would embarrass themselves, their family or school in the community at any time.

Athletes are, because of the exposure to the public, ambassadors of the school district. The schools are often looked at by the members of the community and in other communities by actions of the young people who represent them in the athletic area. This is a weighty, but nonetheless real responsibility that we place on the shoulders of our young people.

As a participant he or she will represent the school in a respectful manner.
