Introduction

SHS is home to one of the most extensive athletic programs in Maine. We currently offer 26 Varsity teams in 17 sports, with junior varsity/or and freshmen teams in 11 sports.  We are a member of the Southwestern Maine Activities Association, a 17-member league comprised of the Class A schools in Cumberland and York counties.

The Scarborough School Department believes that a dynamic program of athletics is vital to the educational development of the student. The high school philosophy focuses on emergent programs that are developmentally sound and success oriented. Students will be provided opportunities to: develop skills, gain knowledge, appreciate others, set goals and experience competition. Some areas of major emphasis include: sportsmanship, citizenship, self-discipline, commitment, teamwork and competition.
