SUMMER GAMES May 31 SPECIAL OLYMPICS KANSAS Celebrating Inclusion Since 1970 SUMMER GAMES May 31 - June 2, 2019 Maize South High School Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt. Athlete Oath 2019 Dear Friends, Special Olympics has been going strong for 50 years. Once a small event, we are now a grand movement with local, state, national, and global competitions happening daily around the world. When we, the people of Special Olympics, come together, we are a force that shows the world what it means to choose to include over exclude. In this volatile world where fear of difference and uncertainty plague society, the athletes of Special Olympics and those who support them at all levels are the leaders of the age of inclusion. When we gather for State or National Games, we are reminded of what the world could be. These Games showcase a world view where the Olympic idea is defined by the gifts you have internally, winning is defined by how you run, and success is defined by the relationships you build. We are lucky that our Games are inclusive, and it’s up to us to spread that inclusion to other parts of our communities. To everyone attending a Games, thank you for the hard work you put into making this happen. To the athletes and Unified partners, you have been training so hard for this, and I look forward to seeing you play hard and give it your all. Good luck! To the family members, no one competing could have made it here without you. Thank you for your constant support. To the volunteers, thank you for your service and for coming to support our athletes. Thank you to all of the supporters who have made these Games possible and who have invested in our vision of a future of inclusion. Now let the Games begin! Sincerely, Timothy P.

  • Maize Case Study
    KT WOODARD SPORTS COMPLEX “Creating a Championship Community Athletic Complex and Providing More Opportunities for the Students of Maize to be Successful” HISTORY Opening in 1939, Maize High School has served as on of the prominent rural school districts in western Sedgwick for over eight decades. Give the agricultural roots of the district’s population, dad’s, granddad’s, and great granddads are among the alumni of a given graduating class. However, with the rapid movement of the Wichita population to the western suburbs, Maize has grown from a little town out in the country to a city in its own right with its boundary push directly up against the Wichita City Limits. Just a decade ago Maize High School had an enrollment or 350 students. Today we have just open a second high school with a total high school enrollment of over 2200 students (600% increase in 10 years). The growth student population doesn’t look to slow down. In fact, our projections suggest that we will continue to see double digit student population growth over the next five years. As a school district, our number one priority to offer the highest quality education with the most high trained staff, and to provide the most state-of-the-art facilities to deliver that instruction. We are confident we are keeping up with the priority. Where we are having some challenge keeping up with the rapid growth is in some of our auxiliary facilities, namely several of the athletic venues. We offer the entire compliment of activities governed by the Kansas State High School Activities Association, and our participation rate of our student body is high.

  • Leavenworth High School Student-Athlete Named Gatorade Kansas Girls Track & Field Player of the Year
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] LEAVENWORTH HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT-ATHLETE NAMED GATORADE KANSAS GIRLS TRACK & FIELD PLAYER OF THE YEAR CHICAGO (June 25, 2020) — In its 35th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company today announced Dhakiya Blake of Leavenworth High School as its 2019-20 Gatorade Kansas Girls Track & Field Athlete of the Year. Blake is the first Gatorade Kansas Girls Track & Field Athlete of the Year to be chosen from Leavenworth High School. The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field, distinguishes Blake as Kansas’s best high school girls track & field athlete. Now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade National Girls Track & Field Athlete of the Year award to be announced in June, Blake joins an elite alumni association of state award-winners in 12 sports, including Lolo Jones (1997-98, Roosevelt High School, Iowa), Allyson Felix (2002-03, Los Angeles Baptist High School, Calif.), Robert Griffin III (2006-07, Copperas Cove High School, Texas), Grant Fisher (2013-14 & 2014-15, Grand Blanc High School, Mich.) and Candace Hill (2014-15, Rockdale County High School, Ga.). The 5-foot-7 sophomore took second in the 60-meter dash with a time of 7.67 seconds at the Mizzou High School Indoor Series Championship this past winter, which ranked as the nation’s No. 79 time among prep competitors in 2020. Blake also placed second in the 200. She was a double gold medalist at the outdoor Class 5A state championship meet in the spring of 2019, breaking the tape in the 400, helping the 4x400 quartet to a win and finishing second in the 200.
