Winter 2023/2024 Sports Parent / Student Athletic Meeting

American Canyon High School Athletic Purpose Statement

Our Purpose:

American Canyon High School Athletics Coaching Staff have committed ourselves to improve our athletic program, our teams, and our student-athletes within our programs. Our goal is to PREPARE, PLAN, AND COMPETE TO WIN. Our PURPOSE is much more significant as we will strive to develop compassionate community leaders:

• Champions of Character embracing a positive attitude and competitive spirit, with respect and resilience.
• Champions of Commitment living team unity for the greater good of the program and community. 
• Champions of Competition in preparation and performance in sport, school, and community.

ACHS Athletics Believes: As coaches, educational-based athletics and the craft of coaching have a tremendous ability to impact our student-athletes lives.  

1. People remember how you made them feel, not what was said. What does it feel like to be coached by you?
2. Our real impact will be determined after our players leave and become adults. Have we done everything to help them be positive role models, parents, spouses, and citizens?
3. The process yields the product. It is a transferable skill that transcends athletics. Have we empowered our student-athletes to control their self-actualization?
