Athletics
Discipline. Teamwork. Leadership. Playing for God's glory.
At Emmanuel Lutheran School, athletics play an important role in helping students grow physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Through sports, students develop discipline, teamwork, leadership skills, and a strong work ethic—all while learning to honor God with their talents and abilities.
