Wellness

Health and wellness are vital to the educational experience at FCDS. The school continues to actively address its belief in the importance of enriching a boy’s mind and body. With highly qualified teachers, impressive facilities, and innovative programming, FCDS is committed to teaching the boys how to be safe and healthy in their daily lives.
We provide the necessary tools for students to be the healthiest version of themselves – emotionally, socially, mentally, and physically. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention says, “Schools play a critical role in promoting the health and safety of young people and helping them establish lifelong healthy behaviors. Research also has shown that school health programs can reduce the prevalence of health risk behaviors among young people and have a positive effect on academic performance.” Our aspirations for overall health don’t extend to athletics only; they are reflected in our physical education programs, mindfulness practice, and family-style lunch program.
