Notre Dame Athletics follows the same purpose as the SSYO (South Side Youth Organization), which is the league we belong to.
To allow the children of our school the opportunity to participate in an athletic program which provides an atmosphere that encourages the development of each individual mentally, emotionally, and physically. This development should be accomplished in an atmosphere that is an enjoyable experience for each participant.
To teach an understanding and knowledge of each activity provided by the SSYO and at the same time to teach and show respect. Respect as it pertains to teammates, officials, coaches, other teams, school facilities, and equipment.
