Why Athletics?
At Gospel Light Christian School, we recognize the significant educational benefits that come from participating in athletics and the many valuable lessons that sports teach. Being involved in athletics helps students gain a well-rounded education here at GLCS. Some of life's most important lessons-such as perseverance, selflessness, respect, and determination- are best learned on the field or court. While these values can be taught in the classroom or at home, the
lessons learned through competition and teamwork are truly unforgettable.
Our Athletics department is dedicated to guiding student-athletes to act with integrity and responsibility, both during competition and beyond, while demonstrating respect and sportsmanship toward their opponents at all times. By emphasizing these life skills, Gospel Light Christian School athletics nurtures habits that prepare students for healthier, more successful lives. We believe the challenges and triumphs faced through athletic competition inspire our students to give their best effort, build strong character, and develop tools that will benefit them throughout their lifetime, far beyond the world of sports.
Academics remain our highest priority at GLCS. However, students who show dedication in their studies and have a passion for athletics are encouraged to participate in our sports programs.
The GLCS Athletics Mission
Gospel Light Christian School is committed to achieving excellence in athletics as part of our broader mission to educate the whole student-mind, body, and spirit. Our athletics program promotes intellectual, physical, and spiritual growth by offering opportunities that foster
character, humility, integrity, determination, and self-confidence.
Athletics at Gospel Light Christian School unites students, faculty, parents, and alumni, creating a vibrant community where both players and fans can share in the GLCS experience. Our coaches take pride in serving as educators aligned with our mission, and our athletes embrace their role as ambassadors, representing the entire school community with honor. Successful athletic teams spark excitement across campus and throughout the community, enhancing school
spirit. We want every student to feel proud to be apart of our programs.
