Each student signs up for an activity during each of our three terms. The period set aside for the activity program is from 3:30 – 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.Boys of similar ages and interests are generally housed together, and dormitories are comfortable and relaxed, with senior leadership provided by house parents who also serve on the teaching faculty.
