Dunwoody Christian School strives to offer a wide variety of competitive athletic programs, which coincide with our students, administration, parents, and people of the Dunwoody Christian community. These programs are designed to allow students to compete at the right pace with other athletes of similar skill levels while learning new skills and athletic knowledge. All teams emphasize the basics and strive to develop good habits. We aim to create an encouraging atmosphere where teamwork, personal development, sportsmanship, and leadership will be developed in a loving, Christian atmosphere.
