"It is the mission of athletics in the Alamance-Burlington Schools to provide a program of wholesome athletic activities to assist all student-athletes to become responsible citizens and demonstrate a spirit of sportsmanship, fair play and teamwork."
The opportunity to participate in the Alamance-Burlington School System's athletic program is a privilege. With that privilege comes certain responsibilities as well as the rewards and honor of being a part of an interscholastic athletic program. This handbook is designed to provide you with information, guidelines, and policies of the Alamance-Burlington School System. To give yourself a more complete understanding of your opportunities and responsibilities, I strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with this handbook. Leadership, commitment, pride, and passion are cornerstones of success. It has always been my belief that there is a significant difference between athletic teams and athletic programs. A successful program includes dedicated coaches, active support from the student body, outstanding leadership from school administrators, and most importantly, a profound sense of pride fostered by the entire community. Winning is not a score; it is an attitude. Many great athletes and teams have come before, and many will follow the path of great tradition here in Alamance County. Now it is your opportunity to make your mark in the athletic program of the Alamance-Burlington School System. I ask you to play hard, play fair, and dedicate yourself to be the best you can be. The rewards you receive from your participation in the athletic programs of ABSS will stay with you the rest of your life. I wish everyone a highly successful season, both academically and athletically!

Welcome to the Athletic Program at Alamance Burlington School System! You are about to join a program that has a long history of achievement and excellence. Many athletes who have preceded you have provided ABSS with a reputation that is highly regarded in high school athletics. We hope your involvement in this program will provide you with many rewarding and worthwhile experiences and that perhaps you too can make a contribution that will further enhance the reputation of ABSS and its athletic program.
The Interscholastic Athletic Program of the Alamance Burlington School System is an integral part of the total school program, and as such is designed to help our students become better school, community, state and national citizens.
While the academic area is the primary focus of our school system, we believe participation in an athletic program affords opportunities, training and experiences not ordinarily available in the regular curriculum. Education should not only provide for the many, but should also furnish a demanding test for the limited numbers who are gifted physically and who are ambitious to excel.
