Athlete Code of Conduct
The goal of education is to help young people to develop physically, emotionally, and intellectually. The athletic program at Rochester Community Schools is meant to contribute to this goal by providing our student athletes with opportunities to participate as team members in interscholastic athletic competition.
Desirable individual outcomes include the development not only of physical skills but also of sportsmanship, teamwork, self-discipline, loyalty, tolerance and perseverance.
As an athlete, students are a highly visible representative of their team, their school, and their community. Student athletes are expected to demonstrate high standards of conduct and sportsmanship as a member of the team. Whether on the court, on the sidelines, or just wearing your colors, RCS student athletes will be commended for, or be held responsible for, their actions.
Rochester Community Schools expects good sportsmanship, fair play and good citizenship at all times for its athletes, coaches, and teams. Students are subject to all MHSAA rules and regulations even though such rules may not be included specifically in this document.
