Extracurriculars

Cardboard Arcade is an after-school STEM enrichment program for 2nd grade students. They will build using engineering skills as they work in teams or individually to design, test, redesign, and eventually create a working arcade-type game. Students will consider game design rules for playing, and prior science knowledge when designing their arcade games.

Owl Choir will be open to any third, fourth, and fifth graders in the Spring Semester. 

Choir will meet after school on designated days from 3:15 to 4:15. 

Sign up sheets will go out after the winter break.

Owl Strings is a class designed for 5th graders to enhance their music skills by learning to play the violin. 

This after school class is taught on Tuesdays and Fridays from 3:15 - 4:15 . 

A running club for 2nd - 5th graders that
covers nutrition, exercise and stretching.
We run 1 mile at each meeting and our
goal is to run the equivalent of four
marathons. Our mission is to encourage a
love for being active and running for a
lifetime.

Project ACORN is a club that provides
students with hands-on opportunities to
learn how the natural world around them
functions as well as how they play a role
in how it is impacted and sustained. Most
of our lessons are taught through the use
of our campus gardens which have been
built by our Oak Hills Terrace Community.

Examples of some of the concepts we
teach are migration patterns and what
positively and negatively impacts animal
populations through migration, how and
why pollination is a necessity, benefits of
native plants, the effects of human
impact, and how to sustain a healthy
ecosystem.

Our goal is for our students to
not only acquire valuable science
knowledge, but to also become
advocates for their environment.

Our Safety Patrols help provide a safe
school environment for our students while
on campus.

The School Safety Patrols
job is to remind students of the school
safety rules and to guide them in safe
arrival, and movement through the
building. They have various
responsibilities that allow them to learn
leadership skills that will help them
throughout life.

A Safety Patrol member
should be responsible, respectful,
cooperative, and helpful.

Solar Cars is a tuition-based after-school
science enrichment program for fourth
and fifth grade students.  

Students build
engineering skills as they work in teams
to design and construct a working solar
car model. 

In April elementary schools from Northside meet to race in a Solar
Cars Competition. Students will apply
science knowledge, creativity, and grit to
work this exciting engineering task.

Student Council promotes citizenship,
scholarship, leadership, and school spirit
as it fosters the development of future
leaders.  Participants learn lifelong skills
such as presentation, project design,
reading, writing, speaking, and listening. 

It also supports service learning as
projects are planned to benefit the
students, the teachers, and the community.

Young Astronauts is an after-school science enrichment program for fourth and fifth grade students. The topic
