Fitness and Wellness

The Chartwell Fitness and Wellness program prioritizes inclusivity and mental health awareness and encourages students to find joy in movement and the outdoors. Defying traditional physical education class norms, the program thrives on a curriculum driven by student choice. The comprehensive, collaborative model touches on all aspects of health and wellness. All Chartwell students are encouraged to learn and utilize self-advocacy skills, try new activities and sports, and expand their definition of wellness to be all-encompassing with physical, mental, and emotional health. 

The middle school program is a continuation of the core skills that are taught in the lower school program; teamwork, sportsmanship, and conflict resolution. These core skills are implemented and practiced in every class, and students are encouraged to begin exploring more competitive games that allow them to hone their gross motor skills. To accommodate a wide range of interests, skills, and abilities, it’s common for multiple options to be presented to students in class. Students can typically choose from a competitive, gross motor-skills-based game, a calm activity like hiking, or a mentally stimulating activity like chess. Having a choice empowers Chartwell students and allows them to stimulate their minds and bodies in a way that works best for them. 

Students have the option to participate in a wide variety of interscholastic sports teams as well as athletic clubs. Learn more about Chartwell’s athletics program and offerings here
