PhysiCal eDuCation The Physical Education Department provides students with the opportunity to prepare for a lifelong healthy and active lifestyle. The goal of the Physical Education Department reflects the same ideal as the mission of the school: the education of the total person. With this goal in mind, the Department emphasizes physical, intellectual and social development through student participation in vigorous physical activities and learning the principles of physical fitness as well as the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Why <strong>Prep</strong>? • Excellent facilities such as The Heider Center and Carmen & Don Leahy Stadium offer superior environments for teaching and learning activities. • Block scheduling allows the sophomore PE class to be split into Health Education in the classroom and Physical Education in The Heider Center or Carmen & Don Leahy Stadium. • All levels can participate in Fitness for Life I or Fitness for Life II through our certified strength training coach.

sCienCe The Science Department at <strong>Creighton</strong> <strong>Prep</strong> seeks to prepare students for a highly technological future by helping them learn to process and organize information, think critically and make intelligent, informed science-related decisions. We want to share with students a systematic approach to exploring the scientific aspects of the world in which they live, apply the scientific method and prepare them for college science courses through classes designed to provide the requisite scientific concepts, fundamental principles and laboratory experiences. Why <strong>Prep</strong>? • TEAMS (Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics and Science) earned seven out of the last eight state championships and scored in the top 2.5% of all teams nationally in 2011. • Honors and advanced placement courses are offered in biology, chemistry and physics. • <strong>Prep</strong> has ten modern, well-equipped lecture/lab classrooms.
