Athletics
Holy Family School students are well-rounded individuals. We believe extracurricular activities benefit students by helping them to be engaged learners and strengthen the school community in providing opportunities for students to work together outside of class.
Holy Family School currently offers SOCCER and CROSS COUNTRY in the fall through CYO Athletics. For more information please contact the Athletic Director Jihanna Ness, athleticdirector@hsauburn.com.
Basketball is offered in the winter through the YMCA for grades K-3 and through CYO for grades 4-8.
Track and Field and Volleyball are offered in the spring for girls and boys in grades 4-8.

CYO News
We want to thank all of our Cross Country and Soccer coaches for volunteering their time, talent, and energy to the athletes during the fall season. We couldn't have had a successful season without you.
We also want to recognize our athletes for their hard work, dedication, and Holy Family team spirit they displayed on the cross country trails and soccer fields! Our school community is incredibly proud of you and your effort.

CYO PLACT Workshop for Parents
There is a required workshop (via Zoom) parents must take if your child is playing in a CYO sport. Only one parent needs to register, and it is required only one time while your child plays in CYO for any sport. For example, if your child plays soccer during this season and you take the parent workshop, you will not have to take it again when your child is older or registers for a different sport.
