About the Program
SAA's athletic program is divided into two groups: physical education and competitive sports.
Physical Education
Academy students take physical education as a part of the school's curriculum, where physical fitness and self-discipline are emphasized. Most students take P.E. five times each week; two classes emphasize physical specific sports such as football, soccer, basketball, and lacrosse. Basic skills used in other sports, such as track and volleyball, are also taught.
Competitive Sports
The Academy offers after-school programs in athletics to allow each student the opportunity to participate in a positive, school-sponsored competitive sport. The student body takes advantage of this opportunity with more than 94% involvement. SAA offers football, basketball, cross-country, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, track, baseball, wrestling, and golf.
