In the Lamphere School District, we take a lot of pride in our athletic teams- the athletes, the coaches, and all who help to get our athletes ready for competition on the field/court, and in life. We also take a lot of pride in our community and the positive image we want to proudly present to our surrounding communities.
We want to remind all family members, friends, and otherwise supporters of our athletic teams that while we strive for success and want to foster healthy competitive drive in our athletes, our coaches are also focusing on the development of these players, and want to provide the best athletically educational opportunity for them.
We at Lamphere want to be known for supporting our team, rather than criticizing or harassing the opposition, the officials, or any of our own. We want our fans to elevate, rather than agitate. We must acknowledge that all of us are human, and mistakes and errors can (and will) happen, but taking the positive approach is what will set us apart and elevate us. More importantly, it will set a positive tone for our young people to follow.
We invite our community to be supportive spectators and fans of our teams and coaches. Please trust the coaches to coach, and trust the student-athletes to play. Spectators should refrain from any confrontational interaction with coaches or players until the day after the contest, and the appropriate time and setting has been established. Family members and spectators are NOT allowed to enter the playing arena (field/court) without specific, expressed verbal/written permission from proper administration.
Again, we firmly believe in being a positive, supportive, understanding, and tolerant community, and we thank all of you for doing your part. Thank you for accepting the responsibility of being beneficial role models for our young athletes, and making us delighted to be part of this great Lamphere community.
