The most important goal of the Van Wert Athletic Program is to provide every student athlete the opportunity to grow mentally, morally, physically, and emotionally. In order to assure that the athletic program can provide these opportunities, a degree of self discipline is required of each student athlete. Self discipline involves compliance with rules and regulations concerning a student athlete's personal behavior.
