Athletics and Activities

Girls Lacrosse

Sign ups are now open for girls lacrosse fall ball! Fall ball is a great way to shake off those summer cobwebs and start building team chemistry that will take us far when we get to season. Our focus this year will be on creating a strong team foundation, developing skills for our individual and team tool kits, and HAVING FUN!

Our league runs from 9/6-10/18, with games on Saturdays (I will send the full schedule once I have). The aim is to practice 1x a week in September then ramp up to 2x a week in October. 

SIGN UP FOR FALL BALL HERE BY 9.3.

NOTE: I would love to have as much player participation as possible. The fall ball season is a great time for players of all skill/experience levels to give lacrosse a try – we’d love to invite anyone who is interested to join in on the fun. This year, it is free for all players!

Ravens Abroad is traveling to...

Italy, Germany, Austria, and Prague! Help us excite and recruit students!

Imagine your student standing inside the Colosseum where gladiators once battled, gazing up at Michelangelo’s masterpiece in the Sistine Chapel, or walking across Prague’s historic Charles Bridge. In the summer of 2027, Ravens Abroad will make these moments a reality!

We are thrilled to announce an unforgettable Student Travel Opportunity to Italy, Germany, Austria, and Prague. This journey will allow students to explore world-famous landmarks, experience new cultures, and make memories that will last a lifetime.

Highlights of the trip include:

  • Rome: the Colosseum and the Sistine Chapel

  • Florence: the birthplace of the Renaissance

  • Munich: including a moving visit to the Dachau Concentration Camp

  • Prague: with time to explore the charming Charles Bridge and Old Town

Want to learn more? Stop by the Ravens Abroad Information Table at Back-to-School Night at South on Thursday, September 4th from 5:00–7:00 pm. We’ll share details about the itinerary, costs, fundraising opportunities, and how scholarships can make this incredible adventure accessible to more students.
