Athletics

The varsity athletic program at PSD has been established for the purpose of interscholastic competition. These competitions center on good sportsmanship, ethical behavior, and integrity as advocated by the National Federation of State High School Athletics (NFSHSA), the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (PIAA), and the Eastern Schools for the Deaf Athletic Association (ESDAA). The program is open to academically, behaviorally, and chronologically eligible secondary students in 7th through 12th grades.

PSD is one of 19 member schools of the Eastern Schools for the Deaf Athletic Association (ESDAA). Our teams participate in some weekend tournaments. Intra-association play provides our athletes with the opportunity to meet and compete with other Deaf athletes, while weekend tournaments give them the opportunity to visit other Deaf schools, socialize, and make friendships with Deaf students outside our area. It is a vital aspect of our athletic program and to the social development of our athletes.

It is the goal of the Athletics Program at PSD to develop good athletes, great students, and exemplary citizens.
