About Our Program

The athletic program at Parkside Junior High School is committed to the continued personal growth and development, both physical and mental, of each athlete. Each sport places emphasis on the improvement of skills necessary to be competitive as an athlete advances to the high school level.

Dedication, teamwork, integrity and sportsmanship are stressed throughout the program. Athletes learn to accept personal responsibility for success and failure, in addition to recognizing the limitations and strengths of both. An essential component of the continued success of our athletic program is the balance between athletic participation and academic success. This translates into a strong sense of pride in the Parkside tradition.
