Athletics 

The same kind of initiative and enthusiasm that animates The Urban School's classrooms, labs and studios also serves to inspire the Urban Blues in athletics.

Urban offers a place for athletes of varying levels of experience and expertise, from highly competitive varsity level programs, to the junior varsity teams that are developing the varsity athletes of the future, to the frosh/soph teams where introduction and instruction are emphasized.

Our athletic program aims to help each student improve his or her individual skills, as well as to develop teams whose collective efforts are greater than the sum of their parts. Nearly 55 percent of all Urban students participate in at least one interscholastic sport each year. Recent championship teams prove that with the right combination of talent, hard work, determination and preparation, Urban is a school where athletic excellence can be achieved, and the rows of championship banners on our gym wall are a testament to this.

Students satisfy Urban's Physical Activity Requirement either through interscholastic athletics or through participation in physical activity classes. The flexibility and range of the physical activity program honors the diversity of interests and abilities of our students. Classes are offered during school ("E" periods) and after school.
