About Athletics Participation

A cornerstone of the EA experience, Athletics participation is required among Middle and Upper School students as it offers a chance for students of every skill level to try new things, gain confidence and community, learn teamwork and sportsmanship, and build lifelong healthy habits. 

Our inclusive athletics program offers 96 teams in 31 sports for students of all skill levels, from a multi-sport athlete who wants to build a championship legacy to students wishing to try something new and make friends. Students may also satisfy part of their athletics requirement through non-competitive programs such as fitness training or strength and conditioning, or by participating in approved group activities that take place during athletic periods, including theatre or robotics.

As an EA student moves up through the grades, the athletics requirement changes. Please contact our Athletics team for more details.
