Girls Win Here

Porter's Athletics

Porter’s athletics begins and ends with girls. Our student athletes learn to embrace challenges, set goals, take risks, and demonstrate their power on and off the field.

Athletics at Porter’s centers values like teamwork, leadership, competition, confidence, and respect – while encouraging students to lead lives dedicated to fitness and well-being.

Miss Porter’s School is a member of the Founders League and the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC).

Our athletes have earned a combined 10 Founder’s League and 8 New England championships over the past 20 years.
