Winter Sports at MVHS

The Mountain View High School and Loveland High School unified basketball teams played an exhibition in front of a packed audience at the Denver Nuggets game on December 18, 2022. Congrats to both teams for their terrific gameplay!

Unified sports joins people with and without disabilities on the same team. It was inspired by a simple principle: training together and playing together is a quick path to friendship and understanding.

Level the Playing Field

The Student Athlete Fund removes barriers for Thompson School District student athletes to access opportunities that would otherwise be inaccessible because of financial need. The Student Athlete Fund is intended as a last resort to fill gaps or shortfalls when other funding sources can’t meet the full need of the opportunity and are intended to level the playing field for our student athletes.

Examples of opportunities include:

-Registration fees for activities and sports

-Letter Jackets

-Personal athletic gear (e.g., track shoes, soccer cleats, mouth guards, etc.)

-Practice items (e.g., practice suits, gloves, etc.)
