Message from Athletic Director
Welcome to Paideia Athletics. First and foremost, thank you for supporting the many activities and athletic teams we offer at Paideia. We are very proud of our students for their hard work and dedication.
Our main goal is to encourage participation in athletics because of the important life lessons that are learned when students are involved in their school. Teamwork, self-discipline, time management, commitment, sportsmanship, perseverance and sacrifice are some of the lessons we aim to teach our students. Through participation in athletics, these life lessons will provide the students an opportunity to grow and mature as young adults. We want to prepare them for life after they leave Paideia.
We also hold high standards in regard to sportsmanship and conduct. We expect our athletes and coaches to win with humility and lose graciously. We expect all interactions with opposing teams, fans and coaches to be positive in nature.
The Paideia Booster Club provides tremendous support for our athletics teams. We hope you will consider joining the booster club to help provide additional resources our students need to have the best experience possible as member of the Paideia athletic family.
Mike Emery
Athletic Director
