Athletics
How we play the game matters.
At The King’s School, every one of our sports teams is rooted in Christian values. Whether on the soccer field or the basketball court, our coaches and student-athletes are committed to competing with integrity, respect, and sportsmanship — using athletics as another place to grow in character, not just skill. We believe that how our students play the game matters just as much as how well they play it.
