Athletic Program Information

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Welcome! The athletic programs at Pascack Hills High School enjoy a rich tradition of success dating back more than 50 years. Our current programs have had great success and strive to continue that tradition. Interscholastic athletics play an important role in the educational program of our student-athletes at PHHS and we encourage their success in the classroom as well as on the field. In addition, we strive to teach the concepts of hard work, dedication and commitment. Participation in athletics at the high school level has been shown to help students improve organization and time management, thus improving their academic performance. It also helps improve their chances of gaining acceptance into the college of their choice.

It is our hope that your child will find athletics at PHHS a rewarding and enriching experience.
Sincerely,

Steven Papa

Director of Athletics/Supervisor of Health and Physical Education
