Bayside Athletic Information
Philosophy:
Athletics/activities are an important part of the Fox Point Bayside School’s curriculum. While our number one goal as a school district is to provide a sound academic experience for our students, athletics/activities provide special opportunities for participants to promote their mental, physical, social and emotional development. We feel these contributions to the overall development of our young men and women are essential, and we appreciate the support of our programs by our student body, teachers, parents/guardians and community. There is a "no cut" policy for all after school athletic teams. All students wishing to participate on a team will automatically be added to the roster. However, playing time in games is not always equal and is left to the discretion of the coach. Winning is not the final measurement of success in athletics/activities. We strive for quality in preparation, in presentation, in sportsmanship, and in the efforts of our participants.

SPORTSMANSHIP
-
Respect, courtesy, honesty, and good sportsmanship are basic to good citizenship and should form the basis for all behavior. Since students involved in athletics/activities represent their school, their behavior frequently determines the opinion others have of their school and the individuals within that school community. As students experience the privilege of participating in athletics/activities they must also accept the responsibility of maintaining a set of standards that will bring credit to themselves, their family, their school, and their activity.
