Jimtown held the winter sports awards program on Monday, March 16, 2015.  The awards programs at Jimtown are a chance to honor not only the accomplishments on the court, mat or field of our athletes but also the many great things our athletes do in the classroom.  Jimtown believes strongly in the concept of “education-based” athletics.  This means that athletics is just another tool that we use in accomplishing our mission of education.  Athletics are just an extension of what is happening in the classroom.

Winning games is great…but winning or losing games is not the end of the story.  We hold these kids up as great examples of leadership in the classroom as well as the athletic field of endeavor.
