Since the school was founded, sports have been essential to the CWA higher education. There is much to be learned while at play with teammates, and much to be gained from building a lifetime commitment to fitness.

Our coordinated athletic program takes a sequential approach throughout the Schools, building skills at each level. We encourage broad-based participation, and any student who wants to play will have the opportunity. In fact, more than eight of 10 Upper School students are involved in team sports. How good can such an inclusive athletic program be when it comes to getting the “W”? In recent years, against challenging competition in the 1A division, Charles Wright has been ranked among the top four programs in Washington.

CWA offers participation at both varsity and JV levels in a wide variety of sports. While the Upper School is a member of the Nisqually League, the Middle School competes in the Middle Chinook League. CWA is a member of the Washington Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA) and competes in the “A” level classification.
