Athletics

New for 2025–2026! This year, every SMS student-athlete will receive a custom SMS warm-up shirt and string bag included with their athletic fees. We’ve also capped athletic fees at $70 total, so students can join as many sports as they like without paying extra—making it easier than ever to get involved and show your school spirit!

Welcome to SMS Athletics.  Here you'll find practice schedules and links to game schedules for most teams. Game schedules will be updated below for the Ultimate, Track and Field and Archery seasons this spring. Grade 6 teams are typically not on a School District schedule and will be listed below, once game schedules are built.
