Athletics

Mountain Oaks is part of the Mountain Valley League affiliated with CIF. All ninth through twelfth grade students in good academic standing are invited to join a team. Seventh and Eighth graders may "red shirt". Girls volleyball, coed soccer, boys and girls basketball, girls softball, boys baseball and co-ed golf are offered for high school students. See the calendar for the current schedule.

Mountain Oaks School recognizes the goal of developing the whole person. The athletic program is one aspect of a balanced approach in developing the whole person physically, mentally, socially, creatively and emotionally.

The athletic committee recommends that:
• Everyone participates and each student has the opportunity to play.
• Mountain Oaks considers offering sports not available at the community level.
• Individual sports as well as team sports are offered.
• Students need to be committed to the sport as determined by the Athletic Committee.
• Parents form an integral part of the program by offering support, guidance, and direction to their student.

Uniforms and equipment are furnished by Mountain Oaks. Players may meet at Mountain Oaks to commute to games with Approved Field Trip Drivers. Athletic participation fees may be required, pending Mountain Oaks Governing Board review and approval.
