Mission: The main purpose of the kansas high school rodeo association is to develop character, self esteem,and personal skills to enable members to become responsible adults. The khsra does this through the sport of rodeo. We believe the sport of rodeo provides numerous life skill opportunities for our members while competing in individual rodeo events for prizes and yearly points. Rodeos are put together by volunteer committees that work to continue the sport and provide events for members to compete. Members are required to be enrolled in high school, have passing grades in four of their classes, and obtain signed forms from school faculty that they have met the academic requirements and are good citizens at their schools.
Programs: We teach responsibility and good sportsmanship through rodeo. We had over 200 members and produced over 20 rodeos. We awarded 40 scholarships for the fall 2016 semester totaling over $16,000 and gave away over $84,000 in awards at the end of the season.
