Athletics | Los Angeles Private Schools Athletics Confidence. Camaraderie. Character. At Berkeley Hall, athletics matters. It’s how students grow mentally, physically, and emotionally. From the first swim lesson to the final middle school baseball game, our program is built to support that growth, and spark a lifelong love of movement. Consideration of others is as integral across our courts and playing fields as it is within our classrooms. A Program Built for Balance We believe students can have many passions. Our athletics program is designed to work in harmony with academics and electives, so your child can play soccer and be in the spring musical. Our coaches and teachers collaborate to make it possible for students to explore and thrive. Whether your child is a seasoned athlete or new to sports, they’ll find space here to belong and develop. Physical Education Daily Movement. Lifelong Habits. Our P.E. program is built into the school day, with a robust, intentional curriculum that spans every grade level. Students have physical education four to five times per week, led by teachers who focus on skill-building, fitness, and personal growth. Students explore traditional sports like basketball, flag football, track, and soccer alongside fitness and wellness lessons. any text here Flag Football Basketball Volleyball Soccer Swimming Baseball Track & Field Flag football is part of the San Fernando Valley Private School League (SFVPSL) and competes in co-ed divisions from 4th-8th grade.
