Philosophy
Student activities are an integral part of any educational experience and are essential in attaining the goals and objectives as identified in the Ben Lomond High School Strategic Plan. The ultimate goal of Ben Lomond Athletic & Activities Department is to develop successful adults through hard work and participation in athletics and activities. The athletic programs and activities will supplement the curricular programs by offering a variety of learning experiences that will enable all students to enhance their individual interests, skills, and talents. There are several factors (Ogden School District policies, UHSAA policies, team rules and regulations, Ben Lomond High School building and department policies, risk management, professional ethics, and budgetary constraints) that affect a coach’s decision making process. However, the number one reason to be considered when dealing with students is that the decisions must be based on what best fits the student’s needs.
