Issues of health, wellness, and physical education will be explicitly addressed during quarterly “Skills Intensives,” and will include such topics as CPR/First Aid, Nutrition, and Healthy Relationships.

Guest speakers and healthcare professionals will be invited to participate and lead workshops during the Intensive week. Wellness skills will be implicitly taught through modeling and optional activities throughout the semester.

Before- and after-school offerings such as hiking, yoga, and field games will be available every school day. Additionally, the School lunch and garden programs (aided by the Farm-to-School Network and local food producers) will give students the opportunity to make healthy nutritional choices and participate in growing and preparing their own food.
