Philosophy
Interscholastic athletics are an integral part of the educational program at RVMS and are designed to have a positive influence on students. In addition to athletic skill development, coaches are responsible for teaching our student-athletes proper attitudes toward citizenship, sportsmanship, and cooperation, as well as developing self-discipline and self-esteem. Our goal is to provide an athletic program that is an integral part of the educational program, which will promote physical well being and desirable attributes in leadership and sportsmanship for all the participants in the athletic program.
