We value student involvement in our school and encourage students to participate as much as possible in school activities. Although grade restrictions may apply in some areas, we have activities for everyone. Involvement provides opportunities for students to accept and demonstrate responsibility. A variety of extracurricular opportunities will be offered during the recess times and noon hour. Students who ordinarily go home for lunch will not be charged a fee to stay and eat at school if involved in a lunch-hour extra-curricular activity.
