Dear Hayden Tigers Families and Community,
What an incredible Homecoming week it has been! The energy throughout our town and in the stands during Friday night’s football game was phenomenal. Both teams played with immense heart and passion from start to finish, and they gave us a game that made our entire community proud.
Our fans brought amazing support and positive energy to the stadium, proving once again how special this town is. We are so lucky to live in a close-knit community filled with wonderful, dedicated people, and I am continually honored to be a Hayden Tiger.
As we celebrate these high-energy moments, it is also important that we reflect on how we represent our town through every win, loss, or tough call. Unfortunately, at the conclusion of the game, a select few individuals used profanity and made derogatory comments toward the game officials—behavior that continued out into the parking lot.
While we all share the intense emotions and pride that come with competitive sports, this type of behavior does not reflect our values. Our children—both the players on the field and the younger kids watching from the stands and parking lot—look to the adults around them to see how to handle frustration and intense moments. We are their primary role models, and they take their cues from us.
We want Hayden to show its best self at all times: passionate, competitive, and respectful. Moving forward, let’s commit to keeping our support positive, showing respect to game officials and opponents, and setting the standard of sportsmanship our young Tigers deserve to see.
Thank you for your continued support, your dedication to our school, and for making this Homecoming week so memorable. Let's keep that positive Tiger pride going strong!
Go Tigers!
P.S. Our region is extremely short on referees across sports. If you are interested in working with kids on the field, court, or mat, please go to the CHSAA site or reach out to me for more information.

Homecoming tradition: Football reading with the Kindergarten classes.
Our high school football team continued the tradition this week of spending time and reading with our kindergarten classes. This is an event the team looks forward to every year, and I think the littles love it too!
