Physical Education

Our Physical Education Program plays a crucial role in developing well-rounded students by promoting physical health, teamwork, and lifelong fitness habits.

At Laurence School, we believe in a "Total Child" approach to health, encompassing mind, body, and spirit. We prioritize physical fitness and healthy eating habits, supported by our state-of-the-art, research-based developmental physical education curriculum for K-6 students. Our students participate in daily physical education classes to keep them active and engaged.
