Welcome Back, Bulldogs!

To all new members of the AYA community, our returning families join us in welcoming you, and we are so excited for the upcoming year.

There is so much positive energy at the Schultz Rosenberg Campus and the school year hasn’t even started! We have a new leadership team of experienced and talented educational administrators all working toward a shared vision to make Akiba Yavneh Academy one of the best Jewish day schools in the country. 

AYA Athletics plays an important role in our school community. The life lessons, friendships, spirit, and memories that are made on our courts and playing fields will continue to play a vital role in our student’s educational experiences. The remarkable successes our Bulldogs have enjoyed in North Texas (and nationally) is a significant point of pride for Bulldog Nation and, as an athletic department, something we will continue to cultivate and grow. 
Please read below for important athletics updates for this year:
2023-24 Athletics Fees

For the 2023-24 school year, the athletic fees are as follows: 

  • High School Athletics: $500 per sport
  • 5th-8th Grade Athletics: $385 per sport

All athletics fees may be paid via UltraCamp.
Athletics fees cover costs such as registration, TAPPS, MAL and other conference dues, transportation and, most importantly, provide our AYA student athletes with amazing coaches, equipment, and other resources necessary for a successful athletics program.

We recognize that this is a financial commitment for families, and as such, athletics fees will be incurred after the following:

  • Students can join up to two tryouts or practices per sport in order to determine if this is something they are truly interested in.
  • All fees or financial arrangements must be completed prior to the first competition/game.
If you need to set up a payment plan or seek other financial assistance, please contact Business Manager Chris Brons (email) to request assistance.

We invite you to tap the button below to visit our Athletics page at AkibaYavneh.org where you can check out all of the sports Akiba Yavneh Academy offers our 5th-12th Grade student athletes.
Mandatory Zoom Meeting

If your student plans to participate in a sport, please save the date for our mandatory virtual Athletics Parents Meeting at 7 pm Monday, August 28. Parents will have the opportunity to meet our Athletic Directors and Coaches, receive important information, and ask questions about our individual sport offerings and the AYA Athletics program.
Thanks to generous donors, we have an amazing redesigned and sparkling new gym floor to go along with the custom made uniforms that debuted last year. We have added some fantastic new coaches to our already sensational staff roster. There is much more on the horizon, and it won’t be too long until we're cheering our Bulldogs with all of the ruach and joy that makes AYA Athletics the best show in Dallas!
Thank you for your continued support of AYA Athletics. We look forward to an exciting new year filled with moments that will inspire.

GO BULLDOGS!
