Our diverse athletic offerings provide boys and girls with equal athletic opportunities in a variety of team and individual sports. We offer 23 varsity teams and 38 athletic teams. The younger and less experienced athlete has an opportunity to compete against equitable competition, as does the varsity athlete. Although wins and losses are important we recognize that athletics are educational and provide each student with an opportunity to develop his or her whole self.

Mission Statement of the Eastern Independent League
The Eastern Independent League was created by its member schools in a spirit of trust and shared commitment to the highest ideals of sportsmanship, healthy competition, and mutual respect. Member schools believe that their athletic programs are an integral part of their educational programs and should provide the same opportunities for instruction, participation, growth and success as any other opportunity offered by the school.
