Athletics for grades K-4 introduces students to organized athletics through a recreational, every-team-member-plays format. Lower School Athletics helps young players learn rules, basic skills, and good sportsmanship while having fun. Sports that are often offered are cross-country, basketball and soccer.
Many of the sports opportunities in Lower School are student-, faculty- and parent-driven.

Lower School athletics teams are overseen by Lower School Athletic DirectorBo Storie.
