Athletics
The Roycemore Athletic Department has four concepts in mind:
- Energizing our community culture
- Aligning our academic curriculum with our co-curricular programming
- Creating community within our community
- Promoting healthier life choices that benefit the physical AND mental health of our adolescent community
Our programming aligns with Roycemore's Portrait of a Griffin.
Roycemore provides students with an opportunity for exploration that allows them to build relationships across grade levels, try something new, improve their skills, boost confidence, and be a part of a community. This supports the concept of grit, while encouraging a growth mindset. We believe the benefits of competitive athletics and extracurricular activities are fundamental to a child’s total education.
Roycemore has a place for all athletes in the sport/activity of their choice, regardless of skill level or ability, in our no-cut environment.
Program Goals
- Enhance Academic Understanding: Provides opportunities to apply classroom learning in practical, real-world settings.
- Develop Essential Skills: Cultivates critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, collaboration, and leadership skills.
- Promote Personal Growth: Encourages self-discovery, builds confidence, and fosters a sense of responsibility & citizenship.
- Strengthen Social Connections: Facilitates positive interactions with peers, faculty, and the wider community.
- Support Overall Well-being: Offers outlets for stress/anxiety/depression reduction and personal expression through diverse activities.
Program Structure
Our co-curricular program will be structured to offer a diverse range of activities across multiple domains, ensuring that students can explore their interests and develop a variety of skills. If we do not offer a particular program, we can discuss intramural opportunities that may eventually develop into a sustainable program.
