Sagemont Preparatory School provides a unique experience for our students as we have an intimate, family-like culture in which students have a strong sense of belonging, whether in the classroom or on the court. Sagemont Prep students are granted the freedom to express themselves through student-led initiatives in their courses, clubs, and athletics. That sense of community and belonging can also be attributed to the extreme diversity of this institution’s student population, with over twenty-six countries represented between our students, teachers, and staff.

Diversity is also prevalent throughout all of the Sagemont Prep athletic department programs. We have student-athletes from across the globe, including Lithuania, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Venezuela, Colombia, and Trinidad, to name a few. That type of diversity brings an interesting dynamic to our athletic rosters. It nurtures growth in our studentathletes as they continuously learn to appreciate the range of cultures they are surrounded by. And because of the small size of our school and its athletic rosters, those athletes who may not be “top of their class” can still participate, be a part of the athletic experience, and maintain that sense of belonging.

Tryouts for our newest program, middle school and elementary swim, took place last week, and we are excited to see what our young swimmers can do in the spring competition. Our men’s basketball team brought home the school’s third state championship with a thrilling victory over Orlando Christian Prep, 67-66!

Finally, our men’s baseball program is off to an impressive start with a clean sweep of their preseason games, a 4-1 record through the first two weeks of the season, and a top 10 power ranking! As always, follow us on Instagram @sagemontprepathletics for full game schedules and updates on our spring sports. GO LIONS!!!
