Over the past decade, areas in southern Dallas and Ellis counties have seen significant population growth. As populations swell, cities recognize the need to build new schools to serve the families who live there. To address the urgent need without adding to the local tax burden, cities often welcome public charter schools.

Dear Life School Parents, Students, Fans, and Community,

The Life School Athletic Program is a proud supporter of The Texas Way. This initiative is a collaborative campaign between the Texas High School Coaches Association (THSCA), Texas High School Athletic Directors Association (THSADA), and 2Words Character Development. The goal is to enhance sportsmanship at UIL events across the state. Please take a moment to watch this brief video  The Texas Way Hype Video on Vimeo to learn more about what it means to be a Texas Way school district.

Life School Game Expectations

To ensure a positive and respectful environment at our athletic events, we ask all fans and spectators to adhere to the following guidelines:

• Always demonstrate respectful and appropriate behavior to coaches, players, officials and opposing fans. 
• Please refrain from coaching or giving instructions to players during the game.
• Fans and spectators are not allowed on the sidelines, track, gym floor, bench, or dugout area during athletic events.
• Any discrepancies in score or time will be handled by officials, coaches, or administrators.
• Please refrain from approaching the scorers table.
• No standing on the fence in bleachers, ALL Fans must remain in the stands.
• Avoid engaging with referees or officials before, during, or after the event.

Consequences: Any fan or spectator who fails to follow these expectations will receive one warning. Further violations will result in removal from the venue and potential loss of attendance privileges at future Life School athletic events.

As representatives of Life School, we ask that you lead by example, promote sportsmanship, and model positive behavior for our student-athletes. As a Texas Way school district, we are committed to improving sportsmanship, reducing ejections, and fostering strong relationships among coaches, officials, athletes, and spectators.

We encourage our entire Life School community—including coaches, players, parents, fans, faculty, and staff—to join us in supporting this important initiative. Together, we can elevate respect for the game, create a safe and enjoyable atmosphere, and make Life School a premier venue for competition in Texas. Let’s work together to ensure every event is a memorable and positive experience for all involved.

Thank you for your continued support!
