Student Life
Athletics
Our Interscholastic Athletic Program provides opportunities for middle school students to acquire skills, experience leadership, and grow personally.
All students in grades 6-8 are invited to participate, and to learn to balance Academics, Athletics and the Arts. 5th grade students may be invited to participate on a team that is in need of additional players. An advanced notification will be sent in the event of this “as needed” scenario. Our goal is to provide a positive experience for our students on the field of competition.
Good sportsmanship, commitment to the team, and the development of skills and strategies necessary for athletic competition are essential to a successful athletic experience. We believe that it is imperative to foster respect for self and others, honesty, integrity, commitment, reliability, and perseverance. The values learned through interscholastic athletic participation at NAPS will help individuals become more productive members of society and create lifelong learners.
Students in Grades 6-8 are eligible to join our Secondary School Sports programs. (5th grade students are eligible if it is deemed necessary for the team to have more participants, and are invited by the Athletic Director.) We offer:

Girls Cross Country
Coed Soccer
