Participation in sports, whether on a team or at an individual level, helps students develop important life skills including self-discipline, commitment, good health habits, and team camaraderie.

Students in the 7th grade have the opportunity to participate in our athletics program by enrolling in the Athletics elective course. Students will participate in three team sports during the school year. We require students to be academically eligible at the end of their 6th grade year to participate. Students must have at least a 2.0 GPA and no more than one F grade.

Seventh grade girls enrolled in the Athletics elective course will participate in volleyball, basketball, and track and field.

Seventh grade boys enrolled in the Athletics elective course will participate in football, basketball, and track and field.
