Sports
Sports are emphasized not only during the scheduled gym periods; the teachers
and students at Wayland Academy are actively involved in group game activities
during recess as well. According to the season of the year, recess games
may include soccer, basketball, kickball, softball and touch football.
Although students are not required to participate in recess games, they are
encouraged to take part in order to gain a knowledge of the various games,
improve physical coordination, and help develop the important social skills of
cooperation and leadership.
