Live well to STAND OUT.

Our athletic programs help every Knight recognize the champion inside. 

Championship Athletics

On the field, court, mat, green, track – EHS Knights STAND OUT. We’ve claimed 16 SPC championships over the past five school years (including back-to-back boys’ soccer and baseball wins and a historic girls’ golf title). No wonder our student athletes go on to play for the MLB, NFL, and Division I college teams around the country. On top of that, they’re champs in the classroom: You’ll find former Knights at top schools like Harvard, Howard, Brown, and more.

There's a champion inside. SET IT FREE.

Inspiring Activity

 

At EHS, we believe in developing the whole person. Whether training for our championship sports teams, chasing personal records in the weight room, or developing and maintaining lifelong physical activity, all our students participate in physical education, health and wellness, and strength and conditioning classes through our Wellness program. Here, you’ll learn what it takes to lead a healthy life.

Live well to STAND OUT.
