ATHLETIC/ACTIVITIES DEPARTMENT

EXPECTATIONS AND PHILOSOPHIES

It is the mission and philosophy of Susan Clark Junior High Activities Department to empower our students to be successful as selfless competitors in the present and in the future no matter where they go beyond Muscatine High School. By participating in SCJH activities, students will gain the skills to ‘win on the field of play’ as well as to ‘win on the field of life in the present as well as beyond Muscatine High School.’

Students will be empowered by the experiences that they have while playing Muskie sports.

The core values of the specific athletic program must be lived by our coaches and players in a way that does empower our players for success now (on and off the court/field/track) and in the future no matter where our Muskies make their home.

Expectation #1: Core values are articulated, reinforced, and lived with our players.

Expectation #2: Coaches will show enthusiasm for the game and their players. Players will know that their coaches care about them because of the verbal and nonverbal interactions they have with their coaches. Coaches will model respect for the game, officials, and players by their words and actions.

Expectation #3: Coaches will prepare their team for game success through quality practices that develop the individual player and team skills. Coaches will also make adjustments during competitions that increase chances for success during competitions.
