Athletics Department Philosophy

Athletics is an effective avenue to develop and imbue spiritual attributes and skills of leadership, sportsmanship, teamwork, physical strength, work ethic, and mental discipline.

Hanalani Schools considers participation in the athletic department seasons a privilege and not a right of  student. Thus, the requirement and expectation of any student who willingly participates must meet or exceed the school's academic and spiritual requirements. It is a part of the school's goal to offer extra-curricular activities to those students who can demonstrate their fufillment of their primary repsonsibilities to God, family, and school.
