High School
We belong to the Tri-State Christian Athletic Conference. Our girls play Soccer, Basketball, and Softball. The boys compete in Soccer, Basketball, and Baseball. A one day Cross-Country meet and two one day Track meets are held in the fall and spring. We also compete in tournaments within the Garden State Association of Christian Schools. Our emphasis is on Christian character and sportsmanship — even above winning the contest.
