Dear El Paso Community,


On behalf of the El paso Athletic Department, I welcome all students to participate in our interscholastic sports programs.* Sports are an excellent way to grow emotionally as an individual.* As a graduate of El Paso* University, I know that athletics played a major role in helping prepare me for college and the adult world. Because of sports, the lessons of my coaches, and the games I played, I developed skills in time management, problem solving, delegation, motivation, and team building.


El Paso Athletics participate in the TIAA (Texas Interscholastic Athletic Association) and El Paco Valley Athletic Association (E-VAA.) All rules and regulations handed down by these governing bodies will be adhered to at all times.


As a member of the El Paco athletic family, our expectations for you are similar to your own family’s expectations. Act responsibly as you represent our school district.* Remember that you are an ambassador for everyone who attends our school.* How you act and react to situations reflects not only on you, but also on your parents and peers.* As a student athlete, you have academic and athletic responsibilities.* Study, go to class, practice hard, and do your best to excel. Take pride in the opportunity to represent all of us in a first class manner.


The El Paso Athletic Department’s philosophy is that the student athlete’s pursuits on the field should be equally measured with those off of it.* To that end, an El Paso Express athlete should pursue personal growth through academic work, team experiences, and as an ambassador of our district.* You should maintain a sense of ethical responsibility. The department strives to maintain an outstanding athletics program, conducted in a manner that sets an example for good sportsmanship. Our primary concern is the education of the student-athlete. We expect all who choose to participate in our sports programs to be responsible student-athletes. We hope you will take full advantage of this opportunity to get a top-notch* college education while participating in our athletic programs.***
