MESSAGE TO OUR PARENTS, COMMUNITY AND SPECTATORS
We remain committed to providing a positive environment for students, coaches, officials, and spectators. Athletics are a part of the educational experience that emphasizes fairness, respect, ethics, and good citizenship. As you support Cascade Athletics, please keep in mind that educationally-based high school athletics are friendly competitions grounded in sportsmanship and fair play. Positive comments, encouragement, and cheering for our teams are great ways to show support. Negative comments, taunting, berating, and booing opponents, coaches, and officials will not be tolerated as this will challenge the values we seek to teach our youth.
MIDDLE SCHOOL ATHLETIC PHILOSOPHY
We believe that athletic participation provides a unique opportunity to fulfill the personal, social and physical needs common to middle school youth. Participation in appropriate competitive athletics increases an individuals’ sense of personal worth, self-discipline, respect and fair play, which can carry over into daily problem solving through life.
Coaches, teachers and parents have a shared responsibility to help guide, nurture and support youth in developing the confidence, skills and attitudes that will enable them to make good choices on and off the playing fields.
Through dedication, effort and practice, our youth will develop athletic skills determination and attitudes that will contribute to personal success as well as team goals. Our goal is to develop lifelong learners who enjoy and participate in a variety of healthful activities.
MESSAGE TO OUR ATHLETES
We look to our opponents, officials, and stakeholders as complements to how hard we play, the way we go about our business, and how we conduct ourselves. Entering the field of play, during the course of competition, and how we leave the game, will define our respect of the sport, the opposing school, officials, our community, and ourselves. Demonstrating sportsmanship at the highest level is of the utmost importance. We have been given an amazing opportunity in athletics to represent ourselves, families, school, and community. We will remain committed to keeping this in mind while we grow together.
