Athletics at IVA
After-school athletics are an extension of IVA. Our goals are to keep the athletics program consistent with the mission and vision of IVA as a whole, fostering student growth and equipping students to learn and live well. We believe that athletics provide a unique opportunity for students to grow in their understanding and application of intellectual virtues.

Sports Support
The IVA Foxes Athletic Program is successful because we have dedicated and knowledgeable volunteer coaches. We are always looking for interested individuals who have coaching and playing experience in each specific sport to help head up our sports teams.
