Interscholastic Athletics

Physical health is an essential aspect of overall well-being. In addition to physical education as part of the school curriculum, middle and high school students can compete in interscholastic athletics outside the regular school day.

By playing on a school team, students 

• Increase physical fitness 
• Develop physical skills, including strength, coordination and endurance
• Build self-reliance and emotional maturity
• Broaden interpersonal experiences that result in social growth and understanding in human relations
• Gain opportunities to develop mental acuity and effective problem-solving skills

And school teams contribute to the well-being of the entire school by promoting

• Understanding and appreciation of the place of athletics in American culture
• Ideals of good sportsmanship
• School morale and student involvement in school
• The school as a community that includes current students, families, staff, alumni, patrons, partners and friends
