Athletic Program
The academy offers a variety of athletic programs. Athletic teams compete actively against other independent, parochial and smaller public schools.
In 2008, a two year commitment between the academy and Trinity High School allows students to play for each others' designated athletic teams.
The Academy offers athletic programs for field hockey, tennis, basketball, and swimming.

Famous quotes containing the words athletic and/or program:
“Difficulty, my brethren, is the nurse of greatness—a harsh nurse, who roughly rocks her foster-children into strength and athletic proportion.”
—William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
“The cowboy ... is well on his way to becoming a figure of magnificent proportions. Bowlegged and gaunt, he stands as the apotheosis of manly perfection. Songs, novels, movies, magazines, and operettas have made the least inquiring of us well acquainted with his extraordinary courage, unfailing gallantry, and uncanny skill with gun or lariat. The farmer, meanwhile, sits stolidly on his tractor, bereft of romance and adventure.”
—For the State of Kansas, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
