01What it does

What Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association Inc does

Mission

The purposes of piaa, as set forth in article ii of its constitution, are: (1) to organize, develop, and direct an interscholastic athletic program which will promote, protect, and conserve the health and physical welfare of all participants; (2) to formulate and maintain policies that will safeguard the educational values of interscholastic athletics and cultivate the high ideals of good sportsmanship; and (3) to promote uniformity of standards in all interscholastic athletic competition. Piaa believes that the student-athlete is best served by a system which emphasizes the amateur, educational, and character-building aspects of high school sports and recognizes that athletics is not the driving force.
