SCS Girl's Basketball green sign installed

Congratulations to our Girl's Basketball Team for winning First Place in the 2008 State Championship 7A Tournament. The Lady Wildcats’ awesome accomplishment is displayed on an Illinois Department of Transportation Championship Road Sign on West Jefferson Street near Veterans Parkway.

A second state champion road sign will be installed at another location yet to be determined. This is the fifth set of “green signs” SCS athletes have earned.
 

SCS wins Division Sportsmanship Award

On May 18, the IESA announced the recipients of the 2008-2009 Division Sportsmanship Awards. This award is only given to 17 schools out of the 730 member schools in Illinois.  We were chosen by the Athletic Directors/
Administrators of the other schools in “Division M” to receive this honor. When making their choices, athletic directors and administrators were asked to evaluate the schools in their division based on how that school exemplifies all around good behavior indicative of good citizens and good sports. They are encouraged to look at the entire school community, athletes, coaches and fans. In addition to sportsmanship criteria, a school must be involved in at least 50% of the activities offered by the IESA.  Any school that has had a player, coach or fan ejected from a game or competition is automatically ineligible for consideration. During the month of May, the IESA posts the name of each eligible school for voting consideration among their Division.  Our division, “Division M,” is made up of 52 schools and includes all public and parochial schools in Sangamon, Morgan, Scott, Pike, Calhoun and Greene counties. 

Our teams were blessed with much success this year.  In my 22 years as athletic director, I have not seen a year with more excitement, championship titles and post-season play. Receiving this award on top of an already amazing year is quite humbling. My desire throughout the years for our school has remained the same: When people think of Springfield Christian, I not only want them to think of our strong competitive teams, but also our humility, Christ-like attitude and outstanding sportsmanship. Going the extra “good sportsmanship” mile has always been important to me as athletic director of our school. I am very proud of our coaches, athletes and parents for stepping up to make a difference in the arena of sportsmanship. Springfield Christian needs to be different because we are different! 

This summer, SCS will receive a certificate to display in our school office as well as a banner to hang in our gym. 

Blessings,  Ms. Monica Jones
