Located directly behind the Middle School campus, the Middle School Fields Complex is an essential 3.45-acre athletic space and the largest outdoor facility across all three campuses. MKA launched a major redesign of the complex as part of its MKA Active initiative in 2022. This $3.7 million project, funded largely through the generosity of donors, reflects MKA’s commitment to wellness, balance, and excellence in athletics. As one of the most heavily used areas at MKA, the complex is a vibrant center of activity, supporting physical education classes, recess, and unstructured play during the school day; Middle and Upper School athletic practices and competitions in the afternoons and evenings; and camps, recreational programs, and community gatherings on weekends and throughout the summer.

The revitalized complex met the growing demands of the school’s programs but also continues to serve as a dynamic space for community building and school spirit. Home to: Varsity and Middle School Baseball, Varsity and Middle School Softball, Boys' and Girls' Middle School Soccer, and Middle School Football.

The renovation of Muenster Field, a component of MKA's Future Forward Campaign (designed to support programs, people, and facilities to enhance teaching and learning on all three campuses), has created a facility that now serves as the premier playing and practice facility for Middle and Upper School athletes in field hockey, soccer, and lacrosse. The extensive renovations boast a tournament-quality turfed field, field house, additional parking, and improved spectator areas. In addition, engraved pavers that line the way to the field house commemorate past teams, coaches, and members of the community, as well as offer messages of support from current alumni, families, friends, and athletes.
