NKCPS on VHSL Sportsmanship Honor Roll
Posted on 05/11/2023
The Virginia High School League recognizes member schools that made the 2022-2023 Winter Sportsmanship Honor Roll, including New Kent County Public Schools. The 231 schools recognized had no player or coach ejections or programs placed on warning status.
"We are extremely proud of all the players, coaches, administrators, and fans who worked very hard to make this happen," said VHSL Executive Director Dr. John W. "Billy" Haun, Ed.D. "Each school and community should be proud to be on this honor roll. We feel it's the VHSL's highest honor. Sportsmanship reflects positively on the individuals, schools, and communities."
"VHSL activities are an extension of the classroom, and teaching sportsmanship is an essential part of the education process. In addition, sportsmanship is one of the greatest skills we can instill in our student-athletes," continued Dr. Haun. "Let's celebrate this fall's VHSL Sportsmanship Honor Roll. And say thank you to the student-athletes, school staff, and community members of these schools recognized during the fall season and challenge all our member schools to be on the spring honor roll."
