St. Nicholas School offers the following team sports:
Volleyball for girls grades 5-8, basketball for boys and girls in grades 5-8; cheerleading for girls grades 5-8. They play all of the surrounding schools, public and private, that are usually within a half hour drive. Our sports programs are designed to teach the basic skills, teamwork, and respect necessary to play the sport while being the light of Christ on and off the court. While our teams are competitive, we strive to instill virtue in our student athletes just as the end of our team prayer states: “Let our lives praise you and bring glory to you.”

Cheerleading:
Girls in grades 5-8 are invited to cheer for the boys’ basketball teams. Girls usually cheer at “Home” games only, but many also cheer at games that are closer to us. Cheerleading is meant to support our teams and to cultivate school spirit. Their season goes along with the boys’ basketball schedule.
