Guiding Values

OSSD believes that interscholastic athletics for young men and women have an important place in the modern secondary school and are a vital part of the total educational program. Athletic participation has value to the participants, the student body, and our community. The values to participants are many. The student who desires to excel in sports is provided the opportunity for advanced study and participation under expert guidance in an environment conducive to learning. We believe that the experience of playing athletic games should be a part of the education of all students who attend OSSD.
