Theprogram is specifically designed to give 7th graders an environment where they can develop healthy habits, establish good relationships with peers, caring adults as well as with themselves. Students will get to experience a variety of fitness and recreational activities allowing them to discover what excites them.  Once your child goes through an orientation and fills out paperwork, parents can drop them. They can then use the basketball courts, the pool & fitness center.  If your child is interested, please fill out the online form and they will be in touch to explain the program and set up an orientation.
