Mission of Burleson ISD Athletics

To provide a caring and creative environment that promotes excellence, fosters integrity and encourages each student to reach his or her academic, extracurricular and social potential.

Philosophy of Burleson ISD Athletics

The Burleson Independent School District believes that a dynamic program of student activities is vital to the educational development of the student.

The Burleson ISD Department of Athletics should provide a variety of experiences to enhance the development of positive student habits and attitudes that will prepare them for adult life in a democratic society.

Athletics should function as an integral part of the total curriculum.  It should offer opportunities to serve the institution, to assist in the development of positive relationships and good will, to promote self-realization, all-around growth, and good citizenship qualities.

The BurlesonISD athletic program is based on the premise that athletes are students first and that athletic participation is a privilege rather than a right. Students learn teamwork and group responsibility. They also learn to deal with success and to overcome adversity.  The athletic program in Burleson ISD is structured very intentionally, with specific goals in mind for athletes at each level.  All athletes are required to properly represent BISD on and off the field, or they will not be afforded the privilege of representing BISD in interscholastic competition.
