Athletics

Our LEAP athletics program not only provides our students a chance for competition, exercise, and entertainment, it promotes leadership and teamwork on the field (or the court). Students and staff (who coach the teams) have the opportunity to work together outside the classroom, which can make time spent in the classroom that much more productive. Please support our teams and GO LANCERS!

*All athletic teams are open to students in grades 9-12 who meet school GPA requirements and pass a physical examination.
