Athletics

The St. Paul's girls soccer team poses with their Crossroads League championship trophy in spring 2023.

The St. Paul's Athletics department and Physical Education faculty teach positive lessons of perseverance, sportsmanship, respect for one’s opponent, and the ability to win and lose with grace. During fall, winter, and spring sports, we help students develop knowledge of the game, experience team unity, build a strong work ethic, and affirm their sense of pride.

Spirit Nights & Field Day

Our community never misses the chance to celebrate our Spartan athletes! During our fall and spring spirit nights, all St. Paul's families and students are invited to come cheer on our team during a league game. We also host our annual Field Day and school-wide picnic in late May every spring. It's a great chance for students in Pre-K and up to compete in friendly games, challenges, and obstacle courses. There's even a faculty/staff vs. 8th grade softball game to closeout the celebration!
