King Academy offers a wide range of extra-curricular sports for students to compete in at both the junior and senior high level. In order to compete on these teams, student-athletes are required to sign the student athlete contract. Failure to abide by the terms of this contract will result in the student forfeiting their eligibility to play on any school-based teams.
