Mission of St. Francis High School Athletics Department
At St. Francis High School, we firmly believe that participating in athletics is an important component of a well-rounded secondary education. The concepts of team work, ethical play, discipline, and time management are invaluable to one’s future success in college as well as the global arena. In addition, we believe that robust support for the athletics program is important in fostering a healthy school community.
The St. Francis High School Athletic Requirement Policy states that students must participate in three athletic activities in their four years of high school. Students must participate in each of the 9th, 10th, and 11th grade years. Participation in the 12th grade is encouraged, but not required. Students may fulfill their athletic requirement by playing an interscholastic sport, or by filling a support position.
The form attached below must be filled out every year to indicate the means by which students will fulfill their athletic requirement. This form must be signed by both student and parent.
In addition, the school must have a physical form for every student each year. A link to the form, created by the Kentucky High School Athletic Association, is below.
