I'm proud to say that I spend just as much time preparing for and working with my extracurriculars as I do in the with course content. I am a strong believer in teaching the whole child and for high school students, a very effective way to reach students outside the classroom is through after-school activities. Research shows that students make gains socially and in the academically through programs like sports and clubs.
Over the years, I've sponsored or worked with the following clubs/organizations:
