We believe that athletic participation is beneficial to the academic, emotional, and physical health of our students, and as such it is a required part of the curriculum.
Students can choose from a variety of sports programs including soccer, volleyball, football, basketball, conditioning, tennis, baseball, dance team and track. For the most part, coaches are teaching faculty members.
