RISD Athletics Program provides a supportive and inclusive environment through sports like soccer, basketball, and track and field, starting at the middle school developmental league and advancing to high school Varsity competition.

 

Athletics are a vital part of the RISD experience, fostering teamwork, sportsmanship, fitness, and academic achievement. Guided by the motto "1% better every day," our programs help students build confidence, set goals, and develop life skills.

 

Our teams compete in the Coastal Prep League, the Eastern Schools for the Deaf Athletic Association (ESDAA) Divisions I and II, and national tournaments, offering diverse opportunities for growth and excellence. Additional sports, such as volleyball and softball, are offered based on student interest, keeping the program dynamic and inclusive.

 

We value the support of parents, staff, and the Deaf community in creating a positive, enriching athletic experience that promotes both personal and social development.
