RHS Athletics Overview
RHS Athletics Program Overview
Rustburg High School recognizes the value of extracurricular activities and their role in facilitating the development of an engaged, dynamic and well balanced student body. The athletics department at Rustburg High School, through the diverse group of activities offered, will seek to develop an athletic organization with an active and involved membership that is concerned with the total development of the student athlete, regardless of gender, race, socio-economic status, or activity. The athletic department will encourage and support the physical, mental and emotional development of Rustburg High School’s student athletes, by facilitating improved relationships between athletes, parents, coaches, teachers, administrators, and the community. Research overwhelmingly shows that students involved in extracurricular activities have improved attendance, a higher grade point average, an increased graduation rate, and increased levels of success after high school.
