Pre-K - 5

The physical education program stresses the enjoyment of physical activity in a supportive atmosphere. Physical education classes meet three times a week in grades PK-5. In the early grades, the focus is on developing locomotor skills through a variety of activities that emphasize movement concepts, manipulative skills, and small group games in a non-competitive environment. Starting in grade 3, a team and individual sports program lets students further develop skills in soccer, field hockey, track and field, football, volleyball, badminton, handball, basketball, lacrosse, tennis, and softball. A graduated approach allows students to progress to a more sophisticated level of play and to build athletic skills as they become more mature physically and emotionally. The physical education program seeks to prepare students with the skills needed for a wide variety of sports and to instill a lifelong love of physical activity. Students are encouraged to see physical fitness and the practice of a healthy lifestyle as a goal for now and the future.
