Our interscholastic basketball program begins in fifth grade with boys and girls teams and includes sixth grade teams, junior varsity and varsity teams for boys and girls. In San Francisco, the girls play volleyball in the fall and soccer in the spring. The boys play soccer in the fall and baseball in the spring.
