Computer Literacy and Technology
Computer literacy at Laurel Hill aims to make the computer a familiar, friendly source of information-gathering and applied solutions. Students attend computer lab to learn about application suites, and to benefit from efficient use of the Internet for research and recreation. Multi-media projects, web design workshops, and more complement the many experiences available in the lab. Every classroom is computer equipped, networked, and Internet enabled.

Physical Education
Physical Education at Laurel Hill is a total sports, fitness and health program. Every student is encouraged to participate and fun, friendship, and cooperation are emphasized. Competition is adjusted to a healthful level and sportsmanship is a top priority.

Excellent outdoor and indoor facilities including baseball and soccer fields, tennis and basketball courts, gymnastic fitness circuits, a running track, gymnasium, archery range, batting cage and a deck hockey rink facilitate a complete athletic experience. After-school intramural and club activities build the athletic skills of Laurel Hill boys and girls.

Music & MUSICAL THEATRE
The Laurel Hill music program incorporates the basics of music literacy, singing and listening skills. Pre-instrumental training in the early grades utilizes instruments as diverse as Baroque Recorders and the Indonesian Angklung.

Students may also bring their musical interests to life by learning a band instrument, or singing in the chorus. Students with at least one year of instrumental experience also have the opportunity to join our Jazz Ensemble.
In the springtime, music joins drama as each class produces and performs a fully staged musical theatre production. Interest in the dramatic arts may be enhanced by joining our after school Drama Club.

The Visual Arts
Art at Laurel Hill engages the innate creativity of young people to explore and enhance communication skills and to build confidence and self-esteem. The program also provides formal techniques and methods to enable students to express themselves in the style of the masters, and in their own unique way. Plus, it offers a fascinating window into art history.

The Library
Our sky-lit, sunny library provides ample literature and research resources that correlate to major school themes. Students develop library and research skills through librarian-guided projects, incorporating current reference technologies. Students are encouraged to loan out library books for pleasure reading.
