Students on the playing fields are likely to become more accomplished in the classroom.
Through athletics, we offer our students an arena where they can gain self-esteem and respect for each other. Faculty members serve as coaches, promoting the valuable lessons of cooperation, sportsmanship, and team spirit.
Situated in a cluster of private schools, Kildonan offers beginning and experienced athletes interscholastic competition. For those students who prefer to concentrate on individual skills and fitness without the competitive element, we also offer recreational sports. At the elementary and middle school levels, students are taught fundamental skills and teamwork with ample opportunities for every team member to have game time. At the junior varsity and varsity level, students learn to work with coaches during the daily rigor of practice and in the heat of competition. They know their potential to make brilliant plays but also the possibility of making critical mistakes. They learn to celebrate moments of glory and to forgive in moments of error.
