Athletics
Welcome to Ingraham Athletics!
At Ingraham, athletics are an extension of the classroom. Hard work, dedication, willingness to try new things, and taking risks to expand our mind, body, and spirit are included in all aspects of a comprehensive high school such as ours.
Ram Athletics is committed to being a model program where all athletes are empowered to compete to the best of their ability with the utmost integrity. We believe deeply that what we do, what we say, and how we show up should reflect our School motto: It’s A Matter of Pride.
We will strive to do this by practicing and living the following Ram Pride core values:
Ram P.R.I.D.E.
Perseverance: Never, ever give up. Fight to the finish
Respect: of self, teammates, opponents, officials, and the game
Integrity: participating with honesty to the written and unwritten rules
Diversity: embracing All student athletes
Encouragement: pursuing one’s athletic, academic, and personal best
