Athletic Department Mission Statement
The mission of Landmark Athletics is to provide a competitive
and developmental athletic program, while promoting and embodying
the ideals of teamwork, sportsmanship, hard work and self-discipline.
Developing the student-athlete’s character through a
positive and supportive environment increases self-confidence
and therefore is essential to personal success.
Philosophy Statement
The Landmark School Athletic Philosophy is one that encourages
and allows for participation by all students at any level
of competition. We aim to promote character and teach many
values to our students. Among the values that help our athletes
and competitors to become responsible adults include sportsmanship,
leadership on and off the field, commitment to one's team
or activity, critical thinking during practice and competition,
time management, self-discipline, and enjoyment. We believe
that students will gain these and other values by taking part
in the Landmark School athletic program throughout their career.
Our goal is to challenge our student athletes to strive to
be the best they can be on and off the field. In truth, what
really is important about athletics is to have fun, to fight
adversity, to risk failure, to get up when you are knocked
down, to compete as hard as you can, not to use excuses, and
to learn how to win and lose gracefully.
