“To me, we must learn to spell the word RESPECT. We must respect the rights and properties of our fellowman. And then learn to play the game of life, as well as the game of athletics, according to the rules of society. If you can take that and put it into practice in the community in which you live, then, to me you have won the greatest championship.”

Our school runs a modest athletic program, due to our size. The sports that our students are involved in, for the most part, are cross country, volleyball, basketball, and track and field. This year we have added Skipping as another option, particularly for our younger-aged students.

Athletics is a valuable vehicle through which we can help develop important personal attributes – a healthy competitiveness, a sense of fair play and respect for the opponent, an appreciation for the importance of teamwork, self-discipline, and self-esteem.

One of our goals is to provide opportunities for any student who wishes, to become involved in athletic activities while enrolled at MEI. God has created each of us with different gifting, and it is our hope that through our athletic activities, our students will discover any athletic gifting that they have been blessed with.

MEI welcomes involvement of community members/parents who wish to become involved in coaching at our school, and you are encouraged to enquire with the Principal if that is your desire.
