Athletic and Other Activities

I learned to push myself harder at SVA – academically, physically and socially. – Sakina ‘97

Athletics and other after-school activities available to SVA students build on the lessons of character, self-discipline, commitment and responsibility that are a fundamental part of an SVA education. Athletic opportunities in basketball, softball, volleyball, track and cross-country help students to develop:

confidence, positive self-esteem and moral character
the social skills to interact and cooperate effectively with others
self-discipline, sound work habits and perseverance
an understanding of commitment, responsibility and loyalty
an appreciation for health, physical conditioning and lifetime recreation
