The athletic program at St. Ann's School is an integral part of the extracurricular program and the educational process.  It provides the student athletes wholesome opportunities to develop favorable habits and attitudes of social and group living in an environment of Christian principles and values.

Participation in athletics is a privilege.  A high standard of Christian attitude, behavior and academic achievement is expected of each and every athlete.

Student athletes must follow all school policies and regulation in regard to academics, discipline, uniform code and personal grooming.  An athlete is to be respectful to his/her teammates and coaches at all times.  The athlete is responsible for the equipment used during a sport's season and will be assessed for any loss or damage.

 All student athletes are expected to display sportsmanlike conduct toward an opponent, official, coach or teammate at all times.  The use of profanity, dirty play, or humiliation of an opponent or teammate is not tolerated.  Disciplinary action is taken and may lead to suspension or expulsion from the team.

St. Ann's students in grades 5-8 participate in the Catholic School League's sports program that consists of volleyball, basketball, and track.  Participation in any of the sport's program is dependent on whether or not volunteer coaches are available.  Coaches are expected to model the standard of Christian attitude, behavior and sportsmanship when working and training with the student athletes.

All students who participate in the CSL must have a physical examination within one year of participating in a sport.   The seasons are as follows:

           Volleyball (boys & girls)        September to October

           Basketball (boys)                   November to January

           Basketball (girls)                   January to April

            Track (boys & girls)              April to May     (one track meet held)

  Athletic Season Travel:

 All student athletes must travel as a team to the game site.  During regular school days, buses are provided by the school to transport students to and from the game site as private vehicles are not allowed.   The student athlete may leave after a game only if the parent or authorized person signs the student out with the team coach.  If a student is not picked up by his/her parent at the game site, the student must return to the school in the authorized transportation.  When games are scheduled on weekends or holidays, parents are expected to transport their child(ren) to the game site.

 Athletic Fees and Uniforms:

 Uniform costs are the sole responsibility of students participating in the athletic program.   Uniforms are approved by the Athletic Director and/or Principal before they are purchased.  Uniforms purchased by students are kept by the students at the end of the season.

 All students participating in the sports program will be assessed $15 for each sport in which the student is involved.  This fee helps to defray the cost of travel expense, membership, entrance and tournament fees for each sport.
