Discover Lawrence School athletics. Competing across grades 7-12, our innovative program focuses on student growth, character, and memorable tournament travel.
Whether they are competing on the court or cheering from the stands, sports play a massive role in the lives of Lawrence School students. In fact, more than 70% of Lawrence Lions in grades 7–12 participate in at least one sport. Through sports, our students learn the lifelong value of personal commitment, teamwork, and breaking through barriers.
Lawrence athletics operates on a right-sized model uniquely tailored to our school’s mission. Instead of traditional local conference play, our program focuses on regional tournament competition, meaningful day trips, and overnight travel. These enriching, memorable travel experiences are designed to challenge our student-athletes, build deep team camaraderie, and ensure our students grow as individuals while making memories that last a lifetime.
Our student-athletes compete across a wide array of activities, including:
If a specific sport is not offered at Lawrence, many of our students participate in the athletic offerings of their public school district of residence (per OHSAA guidelines). We actively work with families to customize classroom schedules so student-athletes can get to their home community practices on time.
Our dedicated coaches are primarily Lawrence faculty members. Because they know how your child learns during the school day, they can seamlessly translate those same supportive, strength-based strategies from the classroom to the field or court.
At Lawrence, your child is going to gain confidence, develop leadership skills, and thrive. Gaining confidence in sports mirrors the confidence they gain in the classroom—they support each other. – Bryan Cioffoletti, Director of Athletics

If your student is hesitant to join a team, our advice is simple: just come watch a practice. We encourage students to try it out for a week with zero pressure. If it’s not a fit, they can stop—but more often than not, they fall in love with the camaraderie and stay.
