Philosophy

The Southern Tioga School District’s athletic program is based on the following beliefs:

All coaches should first and foremost be leaders of student-athletes by constantly setting an example of what it means to be an athlete and an educated citizen. It is expected that the coach be consistent and fair in all rules and regulations applied to the student-athletes who he/she coaches.

All persons involved with the athletic program fall under the guidelines and policies of the high school.

Coaches, athletic directors, and administrators bear the responsibility for the evaluation of the program.

The success of the athletic program is measured by student growth and character building.

The athletic program complements the academic program. Athletics offer every student the opportunity to make a positive contribution to the overall educational program.
