Athletics

Black Rock's athletic program embodies the school's participatory spirit. Students are encouraged to explore their sporting interests through interscholastic athletics, intramurals and fitness-focused events and clubs. We believe it is critical that students have diverse opportunities to develop an appreciation for and commitment to wellness.

Additionally, the physical and mental challenges afforded through competitive athletics, in team and individual contexts, help foster leadership skills, self-confidence and strong interpersonal relationships -- assets associated with productive, active lives.

Key goals of the athletic program:

• Physical and emotional wellness
• Sportsmanship
• Skill development
• Character development
• Teamwork
• Expanded knowledge and appreciation of chosen sports

Above all, the mission of the athletics program at Black Rock Middle School is to provide students with a safe, enjoyable and rewarding learning experience.
