As the Athletic Director of Crestwood School, I want to welcome you to our Fall sports program, which begins Monday, September 27th.
I hope your child is as excited as we are to kick off the season. Yes, it is a bit different than in previous years, but certainly a step in the right direction.
Please take the time to read the weekly Friday newsletter, which highlights upcoming events.
We hope you and your child will enjoy some tips we add from time to time to give insight into our philosophy and our school’s end goal.
