Philosophy of Athletics Interscholastic athletics in Meridian Public Schools are considered to be an extension of the physical education program, and its purpose is to aid in the development of leadership, cooperation, sportsmanship, physical fitness, and the competitive spirit in our students, and in turn, an integral part of the overall educational program of the school. As part of the educational program, each individual sport will be conducted so that the physical, social, and mental well-being of each student is its top priority. II. Overview Each athlete should understand that participation in Meridian athletics is a privilege that should be held with high regard. The conduct of each athlete on and off the field is a direct reflection of his or her self, school, family, and community.

  • The Cost of Changing Athletic Conferences Jack K
    The Cost of Changing Athletic Conferences Let’s first start by simply reviewing the one-way mileage from Farwell to schools in the Jack Pine Conference and to those schools in the Mid State Conference: Jack Pine Conference Schools: Mid State Conference Schools: Beaverton- 21 miles Ashley- 60 miles Clare- 5 miles Blanchard Montabella- 35 miles Gladwin- 30 miles Breckenridge- 47 miles Harrison- 18 miles Carson City- Crystal- 55 miles Meridian- 30 miles Coleman- 18 miles Pinconning- 50 miles Merrill- 49 miles Shepherd- 29 miles Mt. Pleasant Scared Heart- 21 miles St. Charles- 67 miles Vestaburg- 33 miles The table points out that the average travel distance to Jack Pine Conference Schools is 26 miles one way (52 miles roundtrip) whereas the average distance to schools in the Mid State Conference is 43 miles (86 miles round trip) or an increase of 34 miles round trip. But just don’t think of this in terms of miles, think in terms of time, and not travel time via car, but by schools’ buses on the road over the cost of a year for athletic trips. I believe that your bus superintendent will be able to give you a clear picture in terms of eXtra dollars it will cost for drivers, substitute drivers to cover a bus route, and the cost for substitute teachers for added time when coaches (particularly for spring sports) will need to leave early. In my home district, I have had many people complain not only about the added travel time for students, but the added costs to the district since switching conferences.
