[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s a lot of PE requirements! Interesting how widely this varies across schools.[/quote] It's MUCH better than schools with a sports requirement. At Sidwell you can take a PE class that meets 2x a week for 45 minutes after school. And there are daytime and before school conditioning options. Going this route means you will have 2 trimesters off over 4 years. (being on a 2 sports teams a year means you can end up with 4 trimesters off) Other schools will require you be on a sports team, manage a team, be in the play - and the time commitment for that is usually 5 days a week for 2hrs each - plus the competitions/performances. GDS is the only comparable school that doesn't have a sports requirement. STA/NCS, Potomac, Maret, Holton, Landon, SAES, Bullis, GT Prep (and more) all have a sports team requirement. [/quote]
