Our philosophy

Emerson Waldorf School places great importance on interscholastic athletic activities for students in grades six through twelve. These activities play a vital role in their overall development, fostering both social and skill growth.

Importantly, EWS teams are inclusive, welcoming all students regardless of their ability or skill level. Every participant has a meaningful role on the team, and our coaches work diligently to ensure everyone has the chance to learn and progress during practices and games, aligning with both individual and team objectives. 

To be part of a sports team, student-athletes are required to honor their commitment by attending practices and competitions while also maintaining their academic responsibilities.

In middle school, athletics at Emerson emphasize participation, teamwork, sportsmanship, skill enhancement, and discipline within a fun and safe environment. As students progress to high school, competition takes on a more serious tone, serving as a true test of skills against worthy opponents.
