Mission

Our philosophy of athletics recognizes that athletic competition significantly adds to the educational experiences of boys and girls. The values gained through athletics are gained equally through winning and losing. The purupose of interscholastic athletics is for the student to grow in their skill, abilitiy, as well as have the opportunity to use those skills in competition against other teams, in collaboration with their teammates. 

With this purpose in mind, the Forest Area athlteic programs will: 

1. Teach leadership skills, teamwork, and competitiveness 
2. Require student-athletes to represent themselves, their school and community in an exemplary manner. 
3. Teach athletes to play within the rules and spirit of the game, and how to be humble in victory and graceful in defeat. 
4. Help each individual reach his/her highest potential through hard work, dedication, and courage. 
5. Give athletes that are positive and life-long.
