During the summer break, several Maxwell students have the opportunity to continue improving their Spanish language while they play games or learn about food from different Spanish countries.

Maxwell students create a 30-minute weekly show with both informational clips and educational features that reinforce concepts learned in the classroom. The program was recognized in the 2017/18 school year as the "Best K-5 Newscast" in the state.

Twenty five intermediate students meet twice a week to enjoy drama in Spanish. Students perform small plays, sometimes written by the students!

Fifty students participate in the school's Spanish chorus. Directed by Sr. Chamorro, they prepare different concerts that are presented twice a year. A section of the students also participate in the district Honors Chorus.
