Kailua High School

PHILOSOPHY OF ATHLETICS

The interscholastic athletic program at Kailua High School is an integral part of the total

educational program. Our program focuses on developing the student’s full potential both

physically and mentally while promoting moral integrity and social responsibility. The value of

athletics is that it provides a breadth of activities that contribute to the total development of an

individual. These activities then afford opportunities to experience life lessons with a built in

support system of teammates and coaches. Last, the Kailua High School athlete and the

athletic staff will display school pride through their conduct and performance in daily life.

GOALS OF THE PROGRAM

1. To provide wholesome opportunities for students to develop from their experiences.

2. To provide a positive experience for all participants.

3. To help each athlete develop to his/her full potential physically and intellectually

while nurturing his/her social and emotional growth.

4. To exhibit good sportsmanship in both victory and defeat.

5. To contribute to the development of a well-rounded individual including: humility,

loyalty, discipline, cooperation, fair play, commitment to excellence, patience,

tolerance, perseverance and responsibility.

6. To provide a common area of interest around which the school and community can

build loyalties and unity.

7. To maximize the amount of participants in each sport and provide a safe environment

where successful experiences occur.

VISION
