A New Lower School Schedule

This spring, we overhauled the Lower School schedule. We emerged from the grueling process with a schedule for 2009-10 that better suits students' needs and better utilizes our facility and faculty resources. One change allowed us to separate 9th and 10th Age physical education classes, which had previously been (mostly) together. To do so, we moved 10th Age PE to the morning, which the students seem to truly enjoy already. One remarked with pride, "We are the first 10th Agers in Calvert history to have PE in the morning!" The pictures below were taken at about 9:30 this morning, under cool, beautiful blue skies. Longtime PE teacher Jane Sewell commented, "The schedule change is the best thing that has happened in years." You will note that I also included a picture of some very happy 8th Age boys in the library for good measure!
