Harrison County School District

Welcome to HCSD Athletics

The program of interscholastic athletics at the junior and senior high school level is an extension of the educational program. In providing these educational experiences, qualified persons are employed to serve in a dual capacity as teachers and coaches. Under the direction of the principal and athletic director, personnel are selected who not only are qualified to train and supervise pupils in competitive sports, but also are professionally prepared as teachers. Pupils participating in the competitive sports program are thus under the direction of a competent person exercising professional judgment where the best interests of youth are to be served.
