Athletics
Designed to foster a competitive, yet age-appropriate atmosphere, Kent School's athletic program promotes physical fitness, skill development and personal responsibility. We expect our students and fans to display good sportsmanship on and off the playing fields. While students are encouraged to set individual goals, the school’s goal for every child is to contribute to the team and, above all, to have fun!
All students in the middle school may participate in our interscholastic sports program. During the fall, girls and boys in grades five through eight may participate in field hockey and soccer respectively. During the winter, students in grades six through eight may participate in basketball. Fifth graders are invited to attend practices only, as games are limited to students in grades six though eight. During the spring, students in grades five through eight may participate in lacrosse.
Coaches strive to give each athlete playing time in every game. Exceptions may be made if a student has not met the following guidelines: regular attendance at practice, a solid effort, a positive attitude, and respect for others. Playing time for fifth graders will be at the discretion of the coach, whose decision will be based on skill, age, and mostly importantly, safety.
