Viewpoint Athletics is a tightknit family. The coaches are dedicated to nurturing our student-athletes. Our emphasis is on building good character. We want to develop our students for the real world and sports is ideal for that.

Francisco Espinoza, Athletic Information Director, P '30

The mission of Viewpoint School's Athletic Program is to prepare student-athletes to practice ethical behavior, including sportsmanship, integrity, and obedience to rules. All athletic contests will represent in perception and in practice the appreciation for athletic excellence and the shared educational experience of competition. All individuals associated with athletic activities will be aware of and responsible for their influence on the behavior of others and be models of good sportsmanship.

Viewpoint students (and families!) have many reasons to wear our school colors with pride. From Lower School to Upper School, our solid athletic program complements our strong academic curriculum, playing a meaningful and necessary role in a Viewpoint student’s education.

Here, our student-athletes develop important character traits - commitment, loyalty, integrity, respect for others and themselves, and an appreciation for hard work, as they experience victory and defeat, team camaraderie, and the passion and joy of competition.

K-12 Athletic Outcomes

Primary School (K-2)

At Viewpoint School, we believe that physical education and athletics play a meaningful and necessary role in the overall education of our students. The School’s physical education program enables students to discover their unique talents and to develop their levels of fitness, self-assurance, and teamwork at all grade levels. Our experienced coaches teach fundamental skills and always encourage good sportsmanship.

Lower School (3-5)

At Viewpoint School, we believe that physical education plays a meaningful and necessary role in the overall education of our students. The School's physical education program enables students to discover their unique talents and to develop their levels of fitness, self-assurance, and teamwork at all grade levels. Our experienced coaches teach fundamental skills and always encourage good sportsmanship.

Those students not interested in interscholastic sports will be participating in physical education classes.

Upper School (9-12)

Viewpoint believes that physical education serves as an important component in the development of a well rounded student. The program provides every student with the opportunity to develop and to maintain a level of physical fitness and skill development commensurate with individual needs. This goal is accomplished through the use of drills, tasks, and activities with emphasis on development of basic skills and conditioning. The program also emphasizes teamwork and good sportsmanship among its athletes on competitive teams. Working with the School’s trainer and nurse, the Department promotes good health through proper nutrition and exercise, a knowledge of how the body functions, and an understanding of injury prevention. In addition to team sports, the program emphasizes individual and recreational sports to help students find lifetime athletic activities. These include aerobic activities, weight conditioning, swimming, volleyball, baseball, fencing, softball, soccer, basketball, and Outdoor Education.

Students in Grades Nine through Twelve must participate in two of three seasons of athletics. They may choose to participate in a physical education class, outdoor education, an independent study program, or join one of our many interscholastic teams. Each sport has teams of different levels of ability. Please visit our Team Pages for a complete listing of sports offered each season.
