Principia Athletics are a key aspect of Principia’s “whole man” education that engages and seeks to reveal all aspects of the individual – the spiritual, moral, physical, intellectual, and social.    We Train Character Education  One of the most important aspects of a Principia education is character training, or in other words the spiritualization of thought.    ‘Now be ever loyal, to the GOLD & BLUE”  The athletic department has defined team work, selflessness, and consideration for others (GOLD) partnered with physical demands that teach one to no longer lean on the material staff (BLUE), as our primary objectives.   High Minded and Hard Fighting: The Principia athlete is ‘high minded and hard fighting’ by expressing purity and courage in every challenge they face.  Our goal is to foster a balanced education of learning how to work with others under the adverse circumstances that competitive sports uniquely offer.     To read further ideas from Education At The Principia regarding Athletics, click here.   Downloadable Forms:   Physician's Form for Sports’ Physical Facilities Use Policy Agreement (attachment below)
