Athletics
Kirby student-athletes work hard and play to win in a competitive and inclusive program.
We encourage all students to stay active and involved by playing on one of our athletic teams. With a wide variety of sports to choose from, 71% of students find their place on a Kirby team. Kirby student-athletes are dedicated and competitive, participating in the Santa Cruz County Private School Association (SCCPSA) in middle school and the Pacific Coast Athletic League division of the Central Coast Section (CCS) in high school.
If you are interested in learning about the opportunities to participate in a middle or high school sport at Kirby School, please contact Kirby's Athletics Director, Abby Christopher.
Beyond promoting physical fitness, participation in team sports fosters essential interpersonal qualities such as leadership, cooperation, and teamwork. Additionally, engaging in after-school sports bolsters the cultivation of effective time management skills. On average, middle school teams meet 2-3 times per week to practice or compete, and high school teams meet 3-5 times per week. This commitment helps students learn how to balance academic, athletic, and personal responsibilities.
