Sportsmanship
"The ideals of good sportsmanship, ethical behavior, and integrity should permeate all interscholastic athletics in our community.~ In perception and practice, good sportsmanship shall be defined as those qualities of behavior which are characerized by generosity and genuine concern for others.~ Our athletic fields should be the laboratory to produce good citizens reflecting fair play in every area of life."
