Student Life

Activities

Eighth Period Activities is an integral part of the school day. It is an opportunity for a student to explore a new interest or socialize with friends in a supervised activity. Many of the same activities and clubs that a traditional school offers are found here, as well as some that can only be offered because of the unique technical laboratories and nature of the school. Currently, there are more than 165 clubs and 25 varsity sports offered. Students interested in starting a club can find what they need by following this link.
