Athletics provide an opportunity for students at The School at Columbia to be part of a team while representing their school. The goal of the elective athletic program for fifth through eighth grade is to create an environment that fosters good citizenship by being part of a community. The athletic program provides opportunities for student athletes to develop teamwork, sportsmanship, goal setting, leadership, respect, and responsibility. Students are exposed to success and defeat while understanding and accepting the results of both. Individual growth within the program helps shape character, offering benefits that extend throughout the lives of student participants. Each year ends with an athletics banquet that recognizes student athlete’s achievement and attitude.
We currently offer the following opportunities in athletics: cross country, basketball, track, and lacrosse .
