Sport Teams
Markville offers sports teams for both boys and girls in all grades. All sport teams are extra-curricular, therefore not mandatory for students to participate in, but is highly encouraged. Some sports require tryouts, while others do not depending on the amount of students trying out or whether the team requires one. In order for a student to participate, they must be able to keep up with school work and maintain a good average. Away games, tournaments, or meets will require students to miss part of or a full day of school in order to participate.

Famous quotes containing the words sport and/or teams:
“What sport shall we devise here in this garden
To drive away the heavy thought of care?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
