At The Alexander Dawson School, a Las Vegas private school for Grades Pre-K-8, we believe that athletics are an integral part of a well-rounded education. Our program goes beyond sports, fostering essential life skills such as teamwork, dedication, and resilience.

A Foundation for Growth

A Commitment to Excellence

As members of the San Fernando Valley Independent School League, our teams compete against top schools in the area. Our state-of-the-art facilities provide an ideal environment for student-athletes to excel. While competition is important, we prioritize overall development and creating a positive and inclusive experience for all participants.
