Vision
"Those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music"- Friedrich Nietzsche
Academic
All members of the Klein Bearkat athletic programs will be held to an expectation of academic excellence. We will do this by prioritizing hard work in the classroom and not wavering on expectations.
We will positively contribute to the already excellent student achievement performance rating by focusing on long term academic growth.
We will establish positive relationships with teachers and staff members in order to promote a collaborative environment in which all parties are benefiting from the actions and mutual interactions.
All players and coaches will take ownership of their growth and personal learning in order to develop the skills necessary to be successful in the classroom.
Athletic
Under my direction, the individual athletic programs will set specific goals of achievement for teams, coaches, and players.
We will strive to be known as overachievers, maximizing the talent that we have in working for success through the 4 T's: Training, Toughness, Tenacity, and Teamwork.
Training - Building positive habits that are in line with the goals set forth by the team members.
Toughness - Developing the ability to withstand adverse conditions by learning strategies to succeed and overcome negative events.
Tenacity - Once the habits are formed and toughness is achieved, tenacity is necessary to stay the course and continue to push forward toward the desired goals.
Teamwork - One person cannot be successful alone. Even in individual sports, there are training partners and coaches that help contribute to the success of each individual. By collaborating and sharing ideas with those around us, we will be able to expand our abilities and maximize our potential.
Character
Players and coaches will hold themselves to high moral standards on and off the field.
We will educate all players and coaches of our athletic programs on how to make choices that line up with the expectations of behavior and composure while representing Klein Bearkat athletics.
We will train all members of our programs by practicing adverse situations in a controlled environment and coaching them through the steps to make calculated decisions that will benefit themselves as well as all others within the team.
Leadership
As an athletic department, we will help instill pride in the Klein Bearkat community through our athletic performances by living up to the ideals in which our stakeholders believe.
We will develop the confidence in our athletes to be able to tackle the challenges that they will encounter later in life by applying the skills and knowledge learned through athletic competition.
We will give back to the community by organizing efforts that will benefit those in need through coordinated activities as an athletic department.
We will establish consistent and positive communication between our coaches and families, friends, boosters, and other stakeholders.
