The purpose of the Athletic Review Committee is to serve as an advisory committee to assist in identifying, reviewing, prioritizing, and providing recommendations to the District Athletic Director regarding the direction of BVSD high school athletic programming.

Our Athletic Review Committee
Committee Composition
- The six BVSD High School Principals

As the committee sets agenda items we will seek the input from recommended students, coaches, parents, and community members as needed to serve on sub-committees.

Recommendations
As the conclusion of the first year of the Athletic Review Committee, it made the following recommendations to the BVSD Board of Education.
- Administer post-season survey, instead of end of year survey to improve participation
- Conduct focus group or exit interviews
- Solicit feedback on concussion management
- Use data to pinpoint improvement in 3 major areas, measure area of success and prevailing needs at each school
- Update report January 2019 and present comparison data August 2019 to Board of Education
BVSD accepted the committee's feedback. In addition to conducting surveys, athletic directors at each school developed action plans and in May 2019 they returned to the Board of Education to provide an update regarding those proposed actions and progress already being made.
