Junior High Sports

Oakdale Junior High School offers a full range of athletic programs for all eligible 7th and 8th grade students. Each season runs roughly 6-8 weeks and allows students to participate in a variety of athletic teams. The sports that we offer are: football, girl's volleyball, cross country, boy's and girl's basketball, wrestling, softball, and track. The staff at Oakdale believe that athletics offers additional avenues for students to connect with the school site and to be part of our exceptional athletic community.

Our sports program enhances the students experience at Oakdale Junior High by fostering positive relationships with peers and staff while learning the life long skills of commitment, dedication, and team work. We encourage all students to increase physical activity and exercise and our athletic program is the basis of that philosophy. Together with coaches, players, and families, participation in athletics greatly adds to the character of the student and aids in developing successful young men and women.
