Summary:
A committee was formed in November 2014 to explore a middle school sports program. Members include 2 community representatives, 3 middle school administrators, an After School Program Manager, and 3 district administrators. The committee has been meeting monthly: November 12, December 5, January 9, January 23, Feb. 27, March 20, and April 24. The program will be offered to students at all 9 middle schools at no cost to students.

The Mission of the MDUSD Middle School Sports Program is to “Engage students, parents, and community members in a safe and fun program of sports to prepare students for successful, healthy living.” Our core values are:
• Sportsmanship
• Leadership
• Commitment
• Teamwork
• Integrity
• Fitness

This after school program will consist of four sports. School teams will practice twice a week and play another school on the third day. A school site coordinator, along with the Principal, will oversee this program. Coaches will be recruited from the site staff.
