Athletics

The athletics program is an important part of the OLPH educational experience. The school is a firm believer of having faith in God, in oneself, in one’s coach, and in one’s school, all of which are important in developing a well-rounded athlete and student.

OLPH School is a member of the Coachella Valley Middle School Sports League, and its athletic program is run by all schools in the league. Sports offerings include:

  • Flag football and volleyball in the fall
  • Basketball in the winter
  • Soccer in the spring

Additionally, once a year, the athletic director assembles a co-ed track and field team to participate in the “Coachella Valley Recreation and Parks District Track and Field Meet.”

Students who wish to participate in team sports must be in sixth, seventh, or eighth grade and must be, and remain in, good standing academically and otherwise. Additional details may be found in the Parent/Student Handbook.
