EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Learning happens in a myriad of ways: at home around the dinner table, in the classroom, on the soccer field, around the Scout campfire, after school with friends, practicing speeches, preparing to proclaim scripture or baking a cake.
Our students are fortunate to also be provided with a Christ-centered environment for learning and students help plan and participate in the weekly school Masses as cantors, choir members, readers, servers and gift bearers.
A variety of additional activities are offered during and after school hours to allow time to teach some of the exciting topics that guide students to personal growth. Each class has their own field trips that are planned by their homeroom teachers. Other in-school activities include class plays, Music Festival Performances, Student Ambassadors, Spelling Bee, Geography Bee, Middle School Math Competitions, Science contests, eighth grade service project to a nursing home and EXPLO.
