Clubs and Activities

Participating in school activities helps students develop interests, time management and social and emotional skills, provide a sense of belonging, can improve mental health, and form positive connections with peers and adults. We try to keep this list up to date, but sometimes we may add or drop programs for a variety of reasons. Please check with the school for the most current information.

Some school activities and programs are tracked through Out of School Time (OST). For a list of programs and participation rates, please see the OST page.
