North Dakota High School Activities Association

is a non-profit organization, which exists to contribute to the education of high school boys and girls of North Dakota. Our services include administering a program of interscholastic activities, clinics, contests and festivals among our member schools. We work to elevate the standards of good sportsmanship and encourage growth in good citizenship, not only of high school students, but also of all others who come in contact with the school activities. Protecting member schools, students, and personnel from exploitation by special interest groups is part of our mission. We encourage pride in scholastic achievement as a fundamental basis for a well-balanced activities program. We strive to supplement the dramatic, literary, music and physical education programs of member schools, giving due emphasis to those tendencies which promise best to promote the mental and physical health and social well being of all students.
