CO-CURRICULARS
Ski/Ride Club
Students, teachers, and parents are invited to join the Grace Ski/Ride Club at Little Switzerland during the winter season for skiing and snowboarding. The club meets four times and participants get free group lessons.
After-School Art Classes
After-school art classes are for students in 5K-5th grades and are held once a week in 6-week sessions. There is a cost for each session and the classes are managed by an outside provider called Young Rembrandts.
Cribbage Club
Cribbage club meets 1-2 times a month after school for an hour. We learn the basics of cribbage and play each week. Cribbage is great for developing quick math skills and is a fun game. We also have a snack at each meeting – giving us the name “Snack club with a cribbage problem!” Cribbage club is open to all students 3-8th grade, no experience necessary!
Forensics
Forensics is an extra-curricular activity offered to middle school students. The purpose of middle school forensics is to build self-confidence and oral competency by developing and practicing fundamental public speaking skills. Students perform at meets that work with your family's schedule. The season runs from the end of January through the middle of March and most meets occur on Friday evenings right after school.
