Athletics
Participation in sports is generally required for grade advancement. Middle School students are required to play three sports during their course of study, and participation in interscholastic athletics is required of Upper School students. (Waivers are given to Upper School students for other extracurricular activities, such as drama, dance, robotics, or independent research projects through the "Innovation Center".) Lower school students participate in intramural sports.
