| Student Activities |
|
| Choir |
|
| All students participate
in the Choir. In recognition of the rich and vibrant musical tradition
of the Catholic Church, the Choir learns and performs traditional
sacred music, including parts of the Mass in Latin and French, as well as secular
works. |

|
| The Arts |
|
| A goal of Chelsea Academy is to awaken
students to beauty. In addition to learning how to recognize artistic
beauty, they are instructed in the skills and knowledge necessary
for producing beautiful works of art. Holding that the visual arts
involve far more than self-expression, the Academy strives to train
both the eye and the hand in its art program. |

| |
|
| Athletics |
|
| Embracing the ancient Greek ideal of mens sano
in corpore sano (a healthy mind in a healthy body), Chelsea Academy
provides opportunities for the physical development and well-being
of all its students. A variety of sports, including soccer, volleyball, and
basketball, are offered, and Chelsea students participate in interscholastic
competition. |
 |
| |
|
| The Outdoors |
|
| Chelsea Academy seeks to promote physical
health, a spirit of adventure, friendships, and an appreciation for
God’s creation. To these ends, Chelsea Academy draws on the
wonderful natural resources available in the Shenandoah Valley by including
outdoor activities as part of its program. Students participate
in at least one hike in the Blue Ridge or Massanutten Mountains each
year, and an all-school canoe trip on the Shenandoah River is
an annual tradition. |

| |
|
| Clubs |
|
| Students are encouraged to participate in school clubs, including the Drama Club, Epic Poetry Club, Feast Day Planners, Chess Club, St. Adelard Farming Club, Yearbooks Club, and Greek Tutorial. A faculty
advisor works with each club. |
