East Windsor Public Schools Athletics
“Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.”– John Wooden
At EWHS, we believe:
Athletics are an extension of regular classroom learning.
Athletics complement the EWPS educational experience.
Some of life’s most important lessons are learned through athletics.
Athletics are inherently educational.
Our Mission
The core purpose of the East Windsor Public Schools Athletic Program is to offer students education-based opportunities to extend the learning experiences outside of the classroom. These experiences aid in the overall growth of student-athletes by promoting academic achievement, skill development, life skills and citizenship.
The Athletic Program creates an environment that strives excellence by encouraging student participation, supporting academic progress and promoting physical, social, emotional and character development while creating a sense of community.
