Philosophy
RAS Athletics and Activities is an inclusive extension of the educational journey for our learners. Through athletic and activity participation, we will strive for the explicit mentoring of compassionate student-leaders while building various developmental assets. RAS Athletics and Activities will always hold every student to high academic standards and competitive excellence on and off the field, court, pool, track, auditorium, and classroom. RAS Athletics and Activities communicate clear expectations for our code of conduct, sportspersonship, and integrity.
The positive learners outcome are the development of student empowerment, commitment to authentic learning, positive identity and values, and social competencies. We are committed to equal and inclusive opportunities for all students and adults of sex, color, ability, national origin, religion, or economic status. RAS takes pride in supporting an Athletics and Activities program, which continuously reinforces the values of Grit, Reflection, Excellence, Accountable, and Thoughtful, resulting in thriving school pride and spirit!
Through authentic and dynamic learning, RAS Athletics and Activities will guide students to enjoy and appreciate the journey of diverse learning over the sole outcomes of winning and losing. Learning involves failure, and RAS Athletics and Activities believes students achieve excellence through the development of resiliency and reflection through failure and adversity.
