Activities Purpose & Belief Statement

Purpose Statement

WARRIOR ACTIVITIES BELIEF STATEMENT

The Brainerd interscholastic activities program encourages multi-sport, multi-activity participation and provides challenge for students in a competitive learning environment that includes rigor, and commitment, requires fair play and good sportsmanship and enhances pride in self, team and school.
We believe interscholastic activities are an integral part of the school's total educational program and the Warrior activities program is an extension of our basic educational philosophy of preparing students to become productive, contributing citizens of their community.
We believe that a sound activities program teaches the participants the values of cooperation as well as the spirit of competition. The individual learns how to work with others for the achievement of group goals.
We believe that a sound activities program stimulates its participants to win and excel, but we are always mindful of the value of our program to the development of health, happiness, physical skills, maturity, sportsmanship, decision- making skills, self-confidence, and self-discipline of each participant. We believe that we must be intentional about teaching these concepts to our student athletes.
We believe that a sound activities program contributes to and enhances the environment and climate of our schools and the communities they serve.
