We understand for teenagers, some of the most important learning opportunities occur outside the classroom. Afternoons at Chatham Hall are built around experiential programming that includes team activities, athletics, performing arts, and practices in well-being. The benefit of our enrichment experience is vast: it’s where friendships are made, confidence is built, goals are achieved (or surpassed!), and drive is strengthened.

“SO FAR I’VE JOINED YOGA, SWIMMING, VOLLEYBALL, AND ROBOTICS. I’M A BETTER FRIEND, A BETTER STUDENT, AND AN ALL-AROUND BETTER HUMAN BECAUSE OF EACH OF THEM.”

FINDING BALANCE

DIVERSITY OF CHOICE

Chatham Hall girls spend their days in the classroom giving their all through captivating class discussions, intense focus on schoolwork, and the ongoing preparation for quizzes and exams.

Afternoons are an opportunity for our girls to decompress. It’s the time during the day when you will most likely witness random outbursts of laughter, singing, dancing, and overall goofiness. This time together, exercising both their bodies and their creativity, provides our girls with a balance to the hard work they invest into their academic day.

Afternoon enrichment is broken into three trimesters that include opportunities to participate on a variety of teams, to improve mental toughness, and take on new challenges.

Our girls can choose to diversify their interests or to focus on finessing one area of expertise through crosstraining. Whether a student arrives as a seasoned athlete or is interested in trying something new, every girl gets to train, play, and contribute at the level that’s right for her.

FOCUS ON WELLNESS We understand that strength of character, mind and body are all critical components when it comes empowering girls. Building mental toughness through experiential and physical challenges creates a strong sense of awareness that crosses over disciplines and lasts well beyond the high school years.

This is why developing a dedication to fitness and wellness is an essential part of the development of the whole girl at Chatham Hall.

THE POWER OF TEAM Afternoons are spent working as a team—on the field, in the barn, on stage—with fellow students and faculty toward shared goals. These moments further strengthen our incredible sense of community by creating opportunities for girls to connect with those who they may not normally spend time with in shared classes or dorm spaces. This power of unity and teamwork is a shared experience for all Chatham Hall girls and one of the most cherished by our alumnae.
