Lewis Mills Athletic Department Mission
The board of education believes individual students will benefit from opportunities to grow physically, intellectually and emotionally through interscholastic and intramural activities. The board will strive to provide students interscholastic competition in a variety of sports, both traditional and non-traditional. These individual and team activities challenge students in competitive environments leading to enhanced individual growth. It is also recognized that a well-organized and well-conducted athletic program has a signifi cant effect on the morale of a student body and is an important factor in promoting positive school-community relations.
Although we are extremely proud of the success of our many programs, we do not condone a “win at all costs” attitude. The purpose of the program is to ensure a positive experience for all students who choose to participate. It is also a goal to provide all student-athletes with an opportunity to learn the importance of ethical behavior, good sportsmanship, positive values, and a realization of their self worth. The Lewis Mills Athletic Department staff is a professional group that takes great pride in their concern for the welfare of each athlete. They are cognizant of the tremendous influence of their position and strive to instill the highest ideals and character traits in our students.
