Philosophy of the Lee High School
Athletics Department

Lee High School Athletic Department believes that every possible opportunity
must be provided for those students endowed with outstanding physical and
mental ability to be able to prepare themselves to compete at a level beyond
that normally offered in the instructional program of the school. We believe the
talented athlete will be allowed to develop their skills and knowledge to the
highest level of that student’s ability. Hard work and practice will lead to
competency on the practice field, which offers a laboratory to measure
accomplishments and set personal and team goals.

In addition to the development of these physical skills, the Athletic Department
believes each athlete should have the opportunity to develop and hone those
mental and social skills that lead to good citizenship, good manners, and good
attitudes. Excellence on the playing field and in the classroom comes from
commitment and willingness to make personal sacrifices for the benefit of the
team. Respectful relationships with teammates, coaches and opponents will
develop loyalty, dedication, spirit, pride and dignity.

Lee High School Athletic Department believes the enrichment of the total
student is achieved through educational, social, moral, emotional, and physical
development. This principle is the foundation of all our school athletic programs.
