From mid-August through mid-November, Lady Jays are encouraged to participate on our school’s 5-6 or 7-8 volleyball teams. St. Paul’s plays area Lutheran, Catholic, and public schools in regular-season games. We participate in local and regional tournaments during the season. Often our 7-8 team attends the Lutheran School Association of Missouri (LSAM) tournament held in Concordia at St. Paul High School at the beginning of November.
Through an agreement with CHS and MSHSAA, students may elect to play football for the Concordia Orioles from 6-8th grade. The fees for football are split among the students who decide to participate.
Beginning in mid-November and continuing through early March, St. Paul’s Lutheran School athletes participate in 4 levels of basketball: 5-6 girls’ team, 5-6 boys’ team, 7-8 girls’ team, and 7-8 boys’ team. Teams participate in several tournaments throughout the season. The 7-8 seasons frequently conclude with the LSAM Tournament held in Jefferson City, MO.
When enough interest is shown and participation is desired, we have cheerleading during our winter basketball season. Students in grades 5-8 are encouraged to participate. The squad is typically comprised of girls; however, if a boy is interested, he would be allowed to join the squad.
Our Spring sport is a very short track season for all students in grades 4 – 8. There are 4 track meets which are held the first 3 weekends of May in Alma, Kansas City, and St. Louis. Students participate in either their grade level or a grade level higher in track and field events. One meet is specifically for students in grades 4, 5, and 6.
As opportunities and interests arise, St. Paul’s Bluejays participate in activities such as Bible Bowl, Academic Bowl, Spelling Bee, cross-country, and other extra-curricular activities.
