Sports at Channing Hall


Channing Hall has a great Middle School sports program throughout the year for both girls and boys.



            Channing Hall Charter School athletic teams compete in the Utah Charter School Sports League (UCSSL) which is a sports league organized and run by athletic directors at participating charter schools across the state. The league consists of around 30 different public charter and small private schools across Weber, Davis, Salt Lake, and Utah Counties.
            Channing Hall offers extra-curricular sports year round, with opportunities for every student to participate. Our sports teams focus on teaching Channing Hall students good sportsmanship, athletic skills, social awareness and fitness concepts they can carry on into high school and the rest of their life.
