In Upper School, student athletes are challenged to take their physical education to a higher and more competitive level. Many of our high school athletes go on to post-season runs and are invited to try out for any of our interscholastic athletic teams or to continue physical education classes. P.E. consists of personal fitness training, group exercise classes, and non-traditional games and activities. We encourage all Upper School students to find the activity that is right for them whether it’s excelling on a sports team or continuing with a lifetime fitness program.
