The philosophy of Saint Rose of Lima Catholic School’s athletic program is to contribute to the physical, mental, and social development of the student. This goal is to be obtained through physical education classes, extracurricular sports, sports days, and other interscholastic athletic activities. A proper balance between these activities should be maintained so that all students who want to participate are provided with opportunities. The program provides for the development of a student’s physical skills, social skills, and emotional stability. The young person is the key focus, not simply “winning.”

• To promote teamwork, school pride, and enjoyment of athletics for all students.
• To teach the fundamental skills of the various sports offered.
• To provide students with the opportunity to learn responsibility and commitment as a team member.
• To challenge the students athletically with competition against area schools in the Catholic Athletic Association (CAA).
• To offer extracurricular sports activities and opportunities for students in Grades 5 through 8. However, the Athletic Director has the discretion to create a full Saint Rose of Lima team using students from Grade 4, and then Grade 3 as needed.

Depending on the interest of students, Saint Rose students can participate in the following sports: Soccer, Volleyball, Boys Basketball, Girls Basketball, Hockey, Swimming (Grades 1-8; must be able to stroke swim the length of the pool), Baseball, Softball, and Track (Grades 4-8).

Unless noted above, all extracurricular sports activities and opportunities are for students in Grades 5 through 8. However, the Athletic Director has the discretion to create a full Saint Rose of Lima team using students from Grade 4, and then Grade 3 as needed.

Other sports may be offered as interest warrants. Please note that some teams may include students from other area private schools.
