Every student in grades 6—9 has the opportunity to play on an interscholastic team. Sports are optional, but around 75 percent of Middle School students participate in at least one sport. Our program stresses sportsmanship, skill building, perseverance, self confidence and teamwork. Our focus is on participation and cooperation; all team members have regular opportunities for playing time.

From the introduction of Ultimate to an awe-inspiring undefeated season by the girls' softball team — and tons of spirited play to go around from all the squads — The Foote School Falcons spread their wings and took flight throughout the springtime.
Foote School has had a field hockey team since at least the early 1930s, decades before Title IX mandated that schools open athletic programs to girls. Today, Foote’s field hockey team is co-ed.
