A Message from the Athletic Director

PictureFaye Wells, Athletic Director
Dodge City Public Schools takes pride in its athletic programs. At the middle school level there are many sports to choose from. By being a member, students will learn good sportsmanship, improve their athletic ability and feel good about their selves while having fun. Students compete against other schools and travel within the state to compete in games, matches, tournaments, and invitational. Parents needing information about their child’s participation in school sports may contact the school’s office at (620)471-2100.  The office can answer questions on school physicals, time and dates for individual sports sign ups, eligibility requirements, dates practices will start, names of coaches for each sport, and the dates of important parent meetings. All sporting events are held after school.
Transportation to sporting events is provided by the school. Parents are responsible for rides after practices are completed. Seventh and eighth grade sports are held after school. To the right is a list of sports by grade level offered by Dodge City Middle School.

Game Day Expectations

Middle School Students are encouraged to participate in as many extra-curricular activities as possible. When students are not actively participating in an activity, or competition, they are encouraged to attend middle school activities to support their fellow classmates. School pride is exhibited when students show up to cheer for the home team. 

Students who are not in good standing (Detentions, OSS, ISP, STP, Choice) will not be allowed to attend these activities. If a student is removed from an activity, they may be suspended indefinitely from all future middle school events. School spirit is a positive  expression of school pride and support for our student athletes and is the expectation at Middle School.
  • Athletic Activity/Entry: Students from Dodge City Middle School or Comanche Middle School may attend games free of charge by wearing their school uniform. When school ID’s are available, the ID will become the students pass into any game for the year. (Each student 6th-8th grade, at both DCMS and CMS, will receive a student ID when they receive their fall pictures. Dodge City Middle School students will have the Cardinal on their ID’s, and Comanche students will have the Coyote Mascot on their ID’s. The ID’s will be used for free admittance to any Middle School Activity. No ID-No free admittance.)​
  • Seating: All students (6,7&8) are to be seated in the student(s) section at any activity. If accompanied by parents, students may sit with parents. ​​
  • Cheerleaders and Drill Team members will be asked to sit in their designated sections with their sponsors. Students will be permitted to visit the concessions and restrooms at the end of quarters, half-time, and between games. Students will then be required to return to the student section at the beginning of the next quarter. When coaches of other sports dismiss their students early to support the activity, we request these students to be seated in the student section as well. 
  • Behavior In The Stands: Stand up and Cheer. Have fun: yell, enjoy yourselves, but use common sense and do not disrespect our team, the opposing team or ourselves. If a student is defiant in any manner, their student ID will be confiscated, and the student will be asked to leave. Parents will be notified, and the student may be banned from attending other activities.
  • Pick-Up Time: Students should be picked up immediately after an activity.
