MESSAGE FROM THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR
Oxbow High School

    The administration, coaches, and staff of Oxbow encourages extra-curricular activities for all students.  We believe that athletics is an extension of the classroom and that it contributes greatly to the overall education of the student-athlete.  It is our belief that athletics teaches a variety of life skills that will enable your son/daughter to succeed later in life.  Our athletic program is based on sound educational and ethical principles.  Through our physical education program and interscholastic athletics, we offer all students an opportunity to develop the skills they need to succeed.
    We expect that all students in our program will develop physically, mentally, and socially.  Our coaches strive daily to have a positive impact on each student-athlete’s life, helping him or her achieve their maximum potential.  At the middle school level, skill development and broad participation are emphasized.  As the athlete progresses through our program, the competition level increases and more advanced skills are taught.  While winning is important, teamwork and sportsmanship are always emphasized. 
    We are committed to the individual growth of each student that participates in our athletic program.  We want to provide our students with the opportunity to positively represent their school and community in a wide range of quality interscholastic programs.  I am excited about the future of Oxbow athletics, and I hope you will continue to support our student-athletes.     

Sincerely,
Richard Thornton
Athletic Director
