Girls on the Run
At Girls on the Run, we inspire girls to recognize their inner strength ad celebrate what makes them one of a kind. Trained coaches lead small teams through our research-based curricula which includes dynamic discussions, activities and running games. Over the course of the 10-week program, girls in 3rd-4th grade develop essential skills to help them navigate their worlds and establish a lifetime appreciation for health and fitness. The program culminates with girls positively impacting their communities through a service project and being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5k event.

Students will work together to develop musical skills and create meaningful relationships through the medium of children's choir repertoire.
Radio Club
At Radio Club, students explore the genre of old-time radio shows and the era when these shows were in their prime. Students choose a radio show to perform and are divided into three groups with a teacher: character actor group, radio commercial group and sound effects group. Students modify an existing radio show script, write their own commercials and develop sounds to go with each aspect of the show. This collaboration between the groups culminates in a variety radio show which is performed in front of invited families and guests. The goal of radio club is to introduce to students the lost art of radio and develop an appreciation of where our current technology of television and music entertainment originated.STEM Club
