Games resume this week for both the volleyball and soccer teams. The sports program at SJCS is a great program that allows our middle school students to develop new skills and explore areas of athletics that may be new to them. We believe sports are one way in which we can use our bodies to glorify God. They also have the ability to teach young people valuable lessons about persistence, teamwork, sportsmanship, and time organization. Our goal is to have as many students as possible participating in the athletics program at SJCS, and we do not cut students from teams. We invite you to attend one of the games and check out the Tigers in action. Check the game schedule each week in the calendar section of the Tiger Tracks.
