Our athletic program is a co-op between our school and St. John the Baptist School in Smithton. The school is a member of the Southern Illinois Junior High School Athletic Association which allows us to compete at higher levels of competition with public schools in the area in addition to Catholic schools in the Diocese.
We are proud to offer several sports for students as young as kindergarten, and we host fundraisers during the year to support our program. All students interested in playing sports, including Junior Hawks, must have a current health form and updated physical (valid for 12 months) on file in the school office.

2026-27 Sports Survey
Jaghawks families—we are already preparing for next year's slate of sports. To better help us prepare, please fill out this survey by the end of April. If you haven't filled out the separate soccer survey you received, please try to do so as well.
We've had an awesome year with our student athletes and are getting ready for more great things to come!
