The school considers the athletic experience to be an important part of students' overall development and is proud that upwards of 68% of the student body participates in interscholastic athletics. The foundations of Alleman's athletic programs are hard work, teamwork, sportsmanship and leadership taught along with an implicit curriculum of faith. Alleman hopes their students will realize and maybe exceed their athletic skills while learning life lessons as a result.
