Veritas Preparatory School continues to grow its academic and extracurricular offerings, bringing even more opportunities for students to thrive. This year, the school has introduced music classes for students in K4 through 2nd grade, and physical education for students in 3rd through 6th grade, enriching the curriculum with programs that support both creativity and healthy development.
Building a Foundation in Music
The new music program introduces Veritas’ youngest learners to the world of rhythm, melody, and song. Through hands-on activities, students in K4–2nd grade will explore basic musical concepts, experiment with instruments, and experience the joy of singing together. The goal is not only to build musical knowledge but also to strengthen listening skills, coordination, and confidence in performance.
“Music is a universal language that engages both the mind and the heart,” said Assistant Headmaster David Ernst. “Music is fundamental to Classical education. By starting early, we hope to spark a lifelong love of music in our students and begin to train the next generation of musicians.”
Promoting Fitness and Teamwork
For upper elementary students, Veritas has launched a weekly physical education program. Students in grades 3–6 will take part in structured activities that emphasize movement, teamwork, and healthy living. The PE curriculum focuses on developing physical skills, emphasizing the importance of daily activity, and encouraging an active lifestyle.
“Our students already excel in academics, but physical education ensures they are also learning balance, discipline, and teamwork through activity,” explained Headmaster Jill Rosario. “These are life skills that reach far beyond the gym or playground.”
A Growing School Community
The addition of music and PE highlights Veritas’ commitment to a well-rounded classical education. Enrollment has grown steadily, and the expanded curriculum reflects the school’s mission to cultivate the whole child—mind, body, and spirit.
Parents and students alike have expressed excitement about the new opportunities. “My daughter came home singing after her very first music class,” shared one kindergarten parent. “It’s wonderful to see her so enthusiastic about learning in a new way.”
With these additions, Veritas continues to provide students with a rich education that prepares them not just for academic success, but for a lifetime of learning, creativity, and character.
