Cougar Athletics

The Cornerstone School Athletics Department supports a variety of after-school competitive sports programs available to both boys and girls in Upper Elementary and Middle School in both junior varsity and varsity teams.

Athletic program seasons take place during the Fall and Spring semesters. Some sports require students to try out while others are open to anyone interested in participating. Any student participating in a sport must maintain an academic average of “C” or above during the entire time that student is involved in the sport. The Cornerstone Cougars compete in the Kingdom of the Son conference, which follows the FHSAA rules and regulations and is comprised of several private schools in Marion and Alachua counties.
