Vision Statement - The University Place School District will be recognized for excellence in the classroom, in the community and in competition.
Philosophy Statement - The University Place School District Athletic Department is committed to fostering excellence in all areas—academics, athletics, and personal growth. We strive to create a culture where student-athletes can thrive both in and out of the classroom, setting a foundation for lifelong success. Through equitable opportunities for all, we aim to build a championship culture that unites students, staff, and the community, igniting pride and loyalty that strengthens Viking Nation.
At the heart of our philosophy is a deep commitment to servant leadership. We believe in upholding our core values of Commitment, Ownership, Respect, and Excellence (C.O.R.E.).

Curtis High School student-athletes embody "The Curtis Way" by competing with passion, persevering through challenges, and committing to excellence in the classroom. They lead by example, prioritize their time, and set goals that drive them toward success. Through humility, confidence, and intentionality, they represent Curtis and Viking Nation with pride, always striving to grow and support each other on and off the field.

EXCELLENCE IN THE CLASSROOM
My name is Suzanne Vick, and I’m excited to begin my 8th year as the Athletic Director for the University Place School District. Participation in high school athletics is an incredible opportunity for students to grow. Student-athletes are more engaged in school, earn higher GPAs, and build skills like discipline, teamwork, and resilience.
With 27 sports offered at Curtis High School, we encourage every student to get involved this year!
Our Vision
Our vision is to be excellent in the classroom, in the community, and in competition. This past year, our athletes thrived in the classroom and earned athletic state championships, served the community through volunteer work, and represented our school with pride and character.
Registration is Now Open
All athletic registration is done through FinalForms.
Athletes must be fully registered and cleared to participate.
Returning users: Log in to update your information and register for upcoming sports.
New users: Visit https://universityplace-wa.finalforms.com, create your account, add your student(s), and complete all required forms.
Medical Clearance
School and District nurses clear all student-athletes medically. This does not happen manually and will take some time. These will all be cleared by the first day of practice. If your child has a need to carry life saving medicine, please submit doctors orders as soon as possible. Failure to do so could result in not being able to practice.
ASB and Fines
All student-athletes must purchase an ASB card to participate in athletics. All fines must be cleared prior to purchasing an ASB. This can be taken care of at Viking/Cougar Days or online at https://wa-universityplace.intouchreceipting.com/
Communication & Google Classroom
Coaches will communicate with student-athletes through Google Classroom, Student Square, and Final Forms. Please ensure your student joins the Google Classroom for each sport they’re interested in. For sport-specific questions, please contact the head coach directly. Contact information is available on the CHS Athletics website and in the document link below.
