The KSHSAA Story
PURPOSE: To contribute to the education of the high school boys and girls of Kansas by: administering a program of interscholastic activities, festivals, clinics and contests among member schools; elevating the standards of good sportsmanship and encouraging the growth of good citizenship, not only for high school boys and girls, but also for adults and all others who come into contact with school activities; protecting member schools from exploitation by special interests; encouraging pride in scholastic achievement as a fundamental basis for a well-balanced activity program; serving the best interests of all member schools by influencing the proper type of legislation or any other desirable means.
The Kansas State High School Activities Association came into existence in 1937, but prior to that year there were other associations governing various types of interscholastic activities, all of which cooperated in formulating a unification program that resulted in the birth of the present Association. In the early 1930s a movement was started to organize an association to embrace all existing associations dealing with interschool events and with authority to supervise and regulate all interscholastic activities.
After a number of years of study and planning by committees representing the High School Principals Association and other organizations such as the Debate League, Typists Association and Music Educators Association, the Board of Control and headquarters staff of the Athletic Association were requested to assist in the formation of a new activities association and take over its administration.
In 1937, the Activities Association came into being. Speech and music activities provided new responsibilities, and considerable time and effort were required to organize the schedule for speech clinics, debate tournaments and music festivals.
E.A. Thomas was the first executive officer of the Association and served in this capacity until his retirement on January 1, 1957. C.H. Kopelk served as Executive Secretary from January 1, 1957 until his death on October 10, 1962. Brice B. Durbin served as Executive Secretary from October 13, 1962 until his resignation on September 1, 1976. Nelson Hartman served as Executive Director from September 1, 1976 until his retirement October 1, 1993. Kaye B. Pearce was named Executive Director effective October 1, 1993; he retired June 30, 1996. Gary P. Musselman was named Executive Director effective July 1, 1996 and retired on July 1, 2018. Bill Faflick became Executive Director on July 1, 2018.
In 1946, upon recommendation of the high school principals of the state, a club program for high school students was established and given the name The Kansas Association for Youth. This character-building and citizenship training program has received eight national citations for their involvement in service projects.
As each year has passed, additional services have been instituted until at the present time all high school activities involving students from member high schools are carried on under the supervision of the administrative staff of the Association. These include such additional activities as student council conferences and the summer workshop; KAY conferences and leadership camp; cheerleader, drill team and pompon squad conferences; speech and drama championships and festivals; scholars bowl championships; and all types of clinics for students and teachers interested in athletics, speech and music. Many of these activities are partially financed from receipts of the state series of basketball tournaments and football playoffs. In addition to summer leadership and service opportunities, the Association administers championship seasons annually for member schools grouped in respective classifications. These season culminating championships and festivals experienced the first interruption in March of 2020, as the boys and girls basketball championship tournaments were canceled following quarterfinal rounds and the spring season canceled due to the national health crisis of COVID-19.
Legislative authority is vested in a Board of Directors composed of approximately 75 members representing senior high leagues, independent schools, middle/junior high school principals or superintendents and allied professional organizations, with a guarantee of gender and minority/ethnic groups.
The management of the affairs of the Association is vested in the Executive Board consisting of 9-13 members (a subset of the Board of Directors, representative of classifications, state and local Boards of Education, and Governor appointees, with membership meeting diversity requirements). The administrative staff consists of Bill Faflick, Executive Director; Cheryl Gleason, Francine Martin, Mark Lentz, Jeremy Holaday, Craig Manteuffel and Rod Garman, Assistant Executive Directors; and Brent Unruh, Office and Operations Manager.
On January 1, 1956 the Kansas State High School Activities Association was incorporated under the laws of the state of Kansas. The headquarters are located at 601 SW Commerce Place in Topeka.

Academics + Activities = Curriculum Partners
WHY HAVE STUDENT ACTIVITIES? In the last few years the value of high school activities has been questioned. Let's set the record straight as to what high school activities are all about. First of all, they are not a separate part of our overall education program but an integral part of it. A good, wellrounded education means not only one that is academically oriented, but one that also includes physical, social and emotional development. These are available through a good school activities program.
Activities encourage physical and mental excellence--Documented reports and statistics from the high schools of Kansas continue to show the "holding power" of activities programs. Those students engaged in any phase of the extracurricular program show a drop-out rate far below that of the uninvolved student. Over 90 percent of those students who drop out of school at the senior high level have never been involved in any activity as representatives of their school!
Activities are a citizenship laboratory--Participation in activities encompasses all races and creeds, and teaches a student that it is a privilege and an honor to represent his or her school. Students learn that activities are important because they show a person how to win, and how to lose. Activities teach self-confidence, poise, respect for the rules and good sportsmanship. Through participation in activities, students learn tolerance and understanding for people and how to control their emotions. They also learn the self-satisfaction of accomplishing a goal.
Interscholastic activities constitute a part of the right kind of "growing up" experiences for American boys and girls. Youth are interested in doing things well--in belonging--in displaying loyalty. With a well administered school program, students and spectators become better citizens through participation and observance of activities conducted under established rules impartially administered.
Grade point averages of students in athletics, speech, music, cheerleading, club programs, etc., rank well above those students who choose not to participate. Interestingly enough, the statistics point out "the more participation the better the GPA!"
The loss of school instructional time, documented by reports from member schools, clearly shows students miss more instructional class time for family vacations, medical reasons, parental excuses, vocational activities, etc., than they do for all KSHSAA-sponsored school activities combined.
Activities reach out to the community--Activities in our Kansas schools will be as good and as sound as those who administer and support them. Rules and regulations are valueless unless they are embedded in the "grass roots" of the local school and community. The underlying philosophy of interscholastic activities presupposes these rules and regulations are for the good of the students themselves--just as are the other phases of the educational program--and that is the way the citizens of Kansas want them to be.
