Culture has become a “buzz” word in the world of athletics from high school programs up to the professional leagues but how do we develop the culture we would like for our schools and teams? Morrisonville CUSD #1 Superintendent Pat Murphy is thankful for the coaches at Morrisonville that lead this charge. Superintendent Murphy believes a smaller school offers students an experience that cannot be replicated on a larger scale. As for what motivates Superintendent Murphy, he shares about his personal experience and his and others continued efforts, for Morrisonville High School students.

We tend to forget that coaches aren’t just teaching the “x’s and o’s.” Murphy talks about the coaches at Morrisonville and the role they play in shaping student athletes for life.

Murphy doubles down and explains the thought process had for Morrisonville High School athletics, while sharing the benefit had on students and their futures.
