Athletics provides a balance of experiences that contribute to the development of learning and emotional skills that enable the student to achieve maximum benefit from his or her education. Participation in an athletic activity is not a required component of the NPX curriculum, but we strongly encourage all children to participate on a team sport at North Phoenix Prep.
