What is a typical day at Laurel Hill?

A typical day at Laurel Hill is a busy one! Students begin their day in their classrooms with our news show and a morning meeting. In addition to our core subjects, each grade level has a curriculum dedicated to social-emotional learning. Students also have the opportunity each day to visit 1 of 5 special areas- music, art, PE, media, and technology. The skills learned in these classes are also woven into their learning in the classroom, and teachers often collaborate with others across content areas to provide engaging, hands-on learning experiences. Our students have daily access to 4 playgrounds and a trail with physical fitness stations, with plenty of time for them to play and explore. In addition, students also receive monthly lessons from our guidance counselor on topics ranging from self-control to self-esteem to bullying prevention. We also recently just opened our Action Based Learning lab, which allows students to learn math and language arts content while engaging in physical activity. Our mission is to develop well-rounded learners, and our staff work tirelessly to create ample opportunities for them to grow and succeed.
