Athletics
Central to our philosophy of educating the whole child, we offer scholars a series of extracurricular sports programs that enrich their experiences at Sojourner Truth Academy. The purpose of athletics at Sojourner Truth Academy is to develop scholar athletes that embody the pillars of the school while also fostering a sense of community and pride in the school itself. Student-athletes are held to a higher standard for behavior, academic performance and leadership.
