CORSICANA ATHLETICS

 

Athletics is an integral part of the total education and growth experience at Corsicana ISD. Athletics is designed to promote general physical fitness and an appreciation for physical activity while also helping to develop agility and overall physical coordination.

The athletic program is committed to having each student learn to take responsibility for personal growth by developing loyalty, pride, integrity and commitment. Each student-athlete will develop concepts of goal attainment through hard work and rigorous self-discipline.

 Athletics provides the opportunity for the student-athlete to exhibit a progression of physical skills and knowledge of a particular sport, enabling him/her to apply these skills and knowledge to new situations in a variety of learning formats. Our goal is to expose students to a variety of situations which will aid them in developing sportsmanship, team cooperation, courtesy and self-control.

 
While winning and losing are components of interscholastic sports, competition and participation are emphasized at CISD and are the means by which students are guided to integrate the values of respect for sportsmanship, loyalty, cooperation, respect for others and fitness into their lives.
