SCA ATHLETICS
SCA provides athletic programs for middle school students through the Harpeth Valley Athletic Conference (HVAC) and high school students through the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association (TSSAA) Division II Class A. On the Dominican Campus, athletics is a training ground for virtue. St. Cecilia girls gain a solid intellectual foundation, a strong faith formation, and learn essential life skills through our athletics and wellness programs that are designed specifically for women.
