Student Life
Life at St. Stephen's
Life outside of the classroom is just as important as what happens in the classroom. From over 50 student clubs and organizations, student government, annual class retreats, the arts, outdoor adventure, athletic and educational travel across Texas and the United States, boarding and day students have numerous opportunities to engage in extracurricular activities that are multipurpose — shaping well-rounded individuals, unifying the school community and connecting students to the world beyond The Hill.
Spartan athletics
Physical activity plays a key role in student life, whether through recreational or competitive athletics. Our students compete in team and individual sports at some of the finest facilities in the Southwest. Our sports programs include football, baseball, field hockey, track and field, basketball, tennis, golf, volleyball, cross-country, lacrosse, soccer and swimming.
arts opportunities abound
Our comprehensive dance and outdoor wilderness programs offer even more ways for students to stay active. Students can expand their talent in visual arts, music, dance, theater and film. These opportunities include an advanced film program, an intensive Theatre Focus program, a student dance company, as well as choral and instrumental student ensembles. Student works are exhibited in our campus art gallery and our modern performing arts center hosts both student and professional performances.
