Through GAC athletics, students get stronger in every way. As they practice and play, our Spartans develop passions, skills, and an awareness of their ability to contribute to their peers, the school, the community, and the world.
From the youngest students through our high school graduates, GAC student-athletes participate in a wide variety of sports each season. Our highly qualified, compassionate coaches emphasize respect, teamwork, courage, integrity, and determination on and off the field. With these skills and character traits, our students have what they need to Be Greater — now and as they pursue their individual futures.
