This is a grass roots program that we believe will counter possible negative influences that exist in our society in regards to sportsmanship. During the year, we will be implementing various portions of the program made available to us by the Illinois High School Association. We plan to communicate the mission of the program to internal and external audiences in the school system and the community. As a school board member and a recognized leader of our community, you can play a role in this campaign by speaking out for good sportsmanship and helping to raise the level of what should be acceptable behavior by our coaches, student-athletes and spectators at our events, home and away. Your conduct at events can also help set an example for others to follow.
Good sportsmanship is something which requires constant attention.
We plan to stress it in a variety of ways this year. We encourage your support of this program, which we feel will have far-reaching benefits of everyone who is a part of our school system.
