Philosophy of Athletics
​
Athletics are an integral part of ASTEC Charter Schools and are viewed as a part of the total educational program. The combination of academics and athletics can be a tremendous experience in a young person’s life. Athletic programs help serve the community by providing a common ground of interest and drawing our patrons together to support the various sporting activities at our schools. The life lessons that can be developed as a part of the athletic program are invaluable and their potential contribution to the athlete include but are not limited to the following: personal integrity, self-discipline, determination, self-confidence, proper mental attitude, selflessness, individual and group responsibilities, and the desire to set high goals.
