Athletics

Overview

Athletics

Home of the Tigers

Sports are an integral part of the total religious and educational program at St. Ignatius School. We offer an extensive extra-curricular athletic program. The purpose of our sports program is to foster individual development through exercise, example, and athletic competition within a Catholic/Christian atmosphere.  In addition to the many PAL championships, we boast an athletic program that accommodates nearly all of the students who wish to participate with our “no cut, no quit” policy.  See attachment for additional Athletics policies and information.  
Cost to participate is $100/participant/sport (Golf is $200/participant).
