The Physical Education program at Allen-Stevenson nurtures the whole child, fostering health, well-being, and the foundational skills that drive our Athletics program. Our dedicated PE faculty equips boys with the essential habits and abilities necessary for success both on the field and in life, inspiring a lifelong commitment to physical wellness.
Grounded in the philosophy of “celebrating where you are,” we meet each boy at his unique starting point while inspiring him to achieve his personal best. By coupling supportive coaching and intentional scheduling with premier facilities, we empower our athletes to thrive today and carry a foundation of excellence into high school, college, and beyond.
Physical Education
What We Nurture Our program develops a boy's development by connecting physical mastery with cognitive growth. Social qualities like responsibility, listening, teamwork, and sportsmanship are actively lived out on the floor every day, shaping strong character from the ground up.
How We Progress Every experience is intentionally scaffolded. Boys begin with individual and partner challenges to build personal confidence, seamlessly advancing to team activities that inspire problem-solving and resilience. Each grade level acts as a stepping stone, preparing boys to thrive in Athletics.
Our program embraces the differences in each child and thus strives to expose them to a variety of athletic activities.

Athletics
A Tradition of Excellence
Welcoming every boy to the field, court, and mat, Allen-Stevenson’s Athletics program pairs a proud tradition of 42 League Championships with an inclusive, student-first philosophy.
- An Option for Every Athlete: Our Junior Varsity program features a strict no-cut policy to encourage participation, while Varsity offers competitive opportunities for advanced players.
- Eight Interscholastic Sports: Boys can explore a wide range of athletic paths, including cross country, soccer, flag football, basketball, wrestling, track, lacrosse, and baseball.
- Character Beyond the Scoreboard: Athletics at A-S teach far more than physical skills. We deliberately instill sportsmanship, teamwork, and resilience, supporting healthy bodies, strong self-concepts, and a lasting sense of school pride.
