Athletics

The Jefferson Christian Academy Athletic Department is an integral part of the school’s mission of Christian education which provides opportunities for spiritual, mental, physical and emotional growth, Luke 2:52. Participation in athletics is beneficial in terms of better health, physical fitness, and improved motor skills, while providing important training in teamwork, leadership skills and self-discipline. The desire to succeed and to excel should be instilled in students, as well as, the respect for authority, respect for the rights of others, and the high ideals of fairness in people-people relationships. These are all desirable learning outcomes that can be achieved through participation in a properly managed, coached and disciplined athletic program.
