What We Offer

List of 4 items.

  • Educational-Based Athletics

    Educational based athletics is defined as an athletic program that can provide students with growth that will sustain them well beyond physical skill development and the knowledge of a game, provide growth opportunities that leads to positive transformation, and connects them to caring adults in their educational environment. 
  • Lower School Athletics (Grades K-4)

    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. As is typical with most elementary school sports programs, the school relies on faculty and / or parents to help with coaching and organizing teams through several local youth sports organizations. Lower School athletics teams are overseen by Lower School Athletic Director Bo Storie.

  • Middle School Athletics (Grades 5-8)

    The Middle School Athletics program will offer various opportunities for students by sport, based on developmental appropriateness and readiness.  Coaches will combine fundamentals, teamwork, and sportsmanship in practices and play.  Though all interested students are encouraged to play, if an excessive number of students are interested in playing, a placement period may be held to determine the teams.  Students will be placed according to attitude, skill, experience, and familiarity with the game.  Once teams are assigned, one team (Gold Team) will participate with the most competitive schedule, and the other team(s) (Green Team, Mustang Team, etc.) may participate in various ways, including an outside league or execute as a skills club.
     
    Some teams may compete in local recreational leagues including, but not limited to Nashville Youth Athletics, and West Nashville Sports League.  In addition, sports may be combined with after school programs (Boost).
     
    Travel will vary for teams.  School teams playing away matches or games on weekdays, will be transported to competition by school transportation.  Competitive teams will compete with a schedule that includes more games and is designed to prepare student-athletes for Varsity Athletics. 
     
    Sports are offered in three seasons, fall, winter, and spring, and vary by participation number and interest.
  • Varsity Athletics (Grades 9-12)

    Varsity Athletics are typically for Upper School students who have shown the perseverance necessary to commit to a higher level of academic and athletic challenges.  Their schedule typically includes both home and off-campus competition.  Though all interested students are encouraged to play, if an excessive number of students are interested in playing, a placement period may be held to determine the teams.  Student-athletes will be placed according to attitude, skill, experience, and familiarity with the game onto either a team or club.  Our teams compete independently, but adhere to National Federation of State High School Association rules and guidelines. 

    Sports are offered in three seasons, fall, winter, and spring, and vary by participation number and interest.
     
    In addition to athletic participation, in-season Varsity student-athletes are expected to participate in Strength and Conditioning time, as designated by their coach.  Out-of-season opportunities for training are also available.
