Extracurriculars

Our fifth grade students are taught the essential elements of playing the violin.  Students meet for violin classes after school twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Students that complete a full year of violin classes are eligible to enter the intermediate orchestra in sixth grade.  Our violin players perform annually at our fifth grade promotion ceremony.

Flight Club is an eight week tuition-based after-school sessions of selected First Grade students in Northside Independent School District. It is an engineering program where students work in teams or individually to design, test, and interact with air-kites, parachutes, paper airplanes and simple rockets. Students learn about the basic principles of flight and design when creating each of these tools.  It is a great opportunity for students to challenge their thinking and give them hands-on ways to see how these tools are built and how they work!

Solar Car Club is an after-school science program for fifth grade students. Students are provided a solar panel, gear box, and axel rods. They will be given other materials also to help them design their solar car. In addition to earning about teamwork, students are also developing their engineering skills through the design and testing process. Mrs. Ramos and I are excited to get started. We will meet in the science room on Thursday from 3:00-4:00pm.
