Participation in activities and athletics plays an important role in the academic, social and emotional growth and development of students. Research shows that students who are involved in high school activities do better in school and have a higher grade point average. Furthermore, involvement in high school activities builds character, increases self-confidence, relieves tension, generates school pride and a sense of community, and because they nurture a feeling of belonging, involvement in activities makes students want to achieve.

Henry Sibley High School offers more than 50 sports and co-curricular activities. All students are highly encouraged to get involved and enrich their academic experience.
