PTA Sponsored clubs and Activities

Our PTA has some fantastic clubs and activities your students can join. Each club is led by a parent/teacher volunteer chair and clubs are held right after school. Details are listed below and how to register or signup! 

ALL CLUB REGISTRATION OPENS AUGUST 10, 2026 at 5pm!

CHESS CLUB

Students who sign up for Chess Club will meet on Mondays to play other students competitively and for fun.  It’s a great place for those new to the game to learn and those returning to Chess Club to improve their game.  There is a small fee that will give students a membership to the Chess Kids app on their school devices and a t-shirt.

The last meeting will end with cold treats!
