Philosophy
In conjunction with the philosophy of the Academy, our Athletics & Afternoon Program requirement places an emphasis on developing a healthy, active lifestyle and is consistent with our belief that students should interact with their peers in and out of the classroom, and on and off campus. We believe that the experiences gained from physical activity benefit our students and play a significant role in allowing them to develop the skills, attitudes and habits necessary to build a strong mind, body and spirit.
