Athletics
The Notre Dame-Bishop Gibbons High School Interscholastic Athletic Program is a natural extension of the high- school curriculum that provides activities for the growth and development of our students. The program includes experiences in human relations as well as opportunities for developing each student physically and emotionally.
We encourage student participation in our athletic program and would like to involve as many students as possible in an educationally sound and successful competitive, interscholastic program. High school athletics is a competitive experience; therefore all who try out do not make a team, nor do all those who make a team receive the same participation opportunities in contests. Ultimately decisions on participation reside with the coaches of a particular team.
In addition, our aim is to develop a student with an improved self-image, the ability to learn a new skill, and an intrinsic motivation for growth and development. We want to see a student who will demonstrate a willingness to accept responsibility for his/her actions, measure him/herself against standards of quality, express ideas and solutions to problems, and value fair play, honesty, and cooperation. We also want to develop student-athletes who will represent Notre Dame-Bishop Gibbons on both the playing field and in the community.
