A: Yes, although we do not major in sports. Our priority is to make sure the students get a good quality education. However, we do believe that sports teach good character and team building. For this reason, we involve the students in different sports throughout the year. Our elementary students ( K-6) are involved in many different intramural sports during their PE time. Junior high and high school students participate in intramural softball during the fall. They also compete against other schools of like faith in basketball and volleyball during the winter and spring months.
