Overview

Athletics at NCS are integrated into the curriculum, bringing the joy and benefits of physical activity, healthy competition, internal courage, and teamwork depending on the path of each student. The program’s home is the NCS Athletic Center, a state-of-the-art 90,000 square-foot underground facility with a fitness and strength training center, four sports courts, a running track, a multi-purpose crew room, and dance studios, all situated around a freestanding, 50-foot climbing tower. Our athletics program has a broad range of choices for students to pick from, whether they are trying something new or following a particular passion. 

 

Lower School physical education (P.E.) classes, held three times per week for each grade level, provide a foundation of skills-based play, emphasizing fun, fitness, strategy, and sportsmanship.

 

Middle School students choose from an array of competitive seasonal sports teams or dance, fitness, or Voyageur, a coed education option focused on problem solving, risk taking, and group cooperation activities.

 

In Upper School, physical education choices include interscholastic teams in 14 different seasonal sports (listed below) as well as options in dance, Yoga, Pilates, fitness, or Voyageur.
