The Athletic program at Episcopal challenges students to reach further, work harder, and grow together as a team.
It's intentional. Team sports help our students push their limits and understand how to give their best to the team. The lessons learned on the field and on the court open new paths to understanding in the classroom and new opportunities for college and beyond. Students in lower school have daily contact with varsity coaches in physical education classes, setting the stage for our no-cut athletic offerings in middle school. By the time students arrive in upper school, they are familiar with their strengths and ready to participate competitively. Our winning track-record is a direct result of our approach and dedication to a student-centered athletic program. |

Athletic Philosophy
Episcopal’s athletic program from the lower school to the high school strives to support the School’s mission of developing the whole person. We believe that thoughtfully designed and directed, age appropriate, athletic experiences contribute to the development of the discipline, character, respect, confidence, and favorable habits, which are part of preparation for adult life.
The commitment is to put the best team on the “field”. Varsity selection is based on skill and maturity of the student-athlete. Each student athlete’s skill is reevaluated at the beginning of the season for team membership. Scheduling and playing time considerations are based on what best serves the team and overall success of the program.

Middle School Sport Offerings
The purpose of this program is to develop skills, sportsmanship, and behaviors that are part of being on a team. Participation is the key emphasis at this level, however this does establish the foundation for our varsity athletic program. The coaches are instructed to make every effort to get each child in each game or to develop a rotation of players for different games that will ensure quality playing time in as many games as possible. Skill, effort and attendance in practice, as well as attitude and court conduct will influence playing time.
