Athletics
Each academic division has a number of sports that students may participate in to enhance and complete their experience at The Independent School. While many Lower School sports are managed through Panther Cub Athletics, Middle School and Upper School include KSHSAA-sanctioned programs that put students in competition with other students from across Kansas.
