Healthy bodies & mindsIn January we've been highlighting how we at Seabury integrate physical education into our program.
We certainly have regular PE programs - terrific ones, both at the lower school and middle school. But really our philosophy weaves out from those classes into our whole program - and back again - and makes up an approach that we think of as "healthy bodies, healthy minds."
From the head of schoolAt Seabury School, we build our program around the understanding that being gifted is not just a school thing – it’s a person thing. Gifted children and adults, with their intensity, high degree of sensitivity and awareness, abstract thinking ability and ability to learn quickly, experience the world differently that typically developing children and adults. In developing Seabury’s program, including the support we offer for parents and the community, we pay close attention to meeting the needs of the whole child – intellectual, social, emotional and physical.
