St. Mary School offers no-cut athletic opportunities for all students in 5th-8th grade. 
Our school participates in the Tri-County Catholic Conference. This allows us to play against other Catholic schools in our area. The league offers Co-ed soccer, boys and girls basketball, girls volleyball, and girls and boys track. We do participate in the IESA State Track Meet each year, too. 

​ If our students would like to participate in cross country, football, wrestling, or track and field we do have a co-op with Huntley Middle School to allow our students to play on their school teams.  Our sports program is only possible with our parent volunteers to help in coaching and working our home games.  

All student athletes must maintain a certain GPA to continue playing sports. Student athletes must have a sports physical, concussion waiver, and fees paid prior to the first practice.
