Athletics

St. James Middle School students have the opportunity to play football and basketball on the school teams.  SJM also has its own cheerleading squad.  Each of these sports require try-outs. 

Our students also have the opportunity to try-out and participate in sports offered by St. James High, such as lacrosse, swimming, cross-country, track, soccer, tennis, golf, wrestling, and baseball.

HCS Middle and High School students planning on participating in interscholastic athletics during the 2017-18 school year must have a pre-participation physical on file in their high school's athletic office/athletic training room BEFORE they can participate in practices and games. Physicals for the 2017-18  school year are valid from April 1, 2017 - June 30, 2018. Students and parents are encouraged to obtain a physical as soon as possible in anticipation of the upcoming sports seasons. Forms are available through your school's athletic training room or may be accessed here.
