A History Of Athletic Excellence: Our Philosophy
At Briarcrest Christian School, the athletic program serves as a means to support and carry-out the mission of the school. As an extension of the classroom, athletics allow students to compete, to achieve goals, to become well-rounded young men and women of strong moral character, consistent with the school’s Christian tradition. A student-athlete has a responsibility to maintain high standards of personal integrity, leadership and athletic accomplishment. These qualities are difficult to maintain unless the athlete accepts his/her leadership responsibility and constantly portrays those high standards. Our hope for each BCS athlete is to encourage each student-athlete to reach his/her full potential and perform at their personal best to help the team achieve its goals.
Sports At Briarcrest
The athletic program at Briarcrest Christian School is an integral part of the student’s total educational experience. The athletic program is designed to provide positive learning opportunity for each student who participates. Students benefit from the development of physical fitness, leadership, teamwork, social skills, self-discipline, and integrity. Decision-making skills, good citizenship, good sportsmanship, and the promotion of individual maturity should also result from athletic participation. These characteristics assist in the development of individual and team attitudes that are beneficial for a successful season and for future life.
