Extracurricular Activities
We offer a variety of extracurricular activities, taught mainly after school throughout the year, in which your child may choose to participate.
Drama
We offer a weekly drama class for children in our elementary program. Students are taught basic acting skills and theatre techniques and produce a play to be presented at their school in the Spring.
Moviemaking Camp
This is a two-week summer camp that teaches children the art of digital moviemaking. Students work in small groups to plan, shoot, and edit a digital movie. Then, at the end of the camp, they receive a DVD of all the student work. The moviemaking process is taught in a detailed, creative, and fun environment.

Chess
The Montessori chess club meets after school on a weekly basis. Participants have the opportunity to take part in various chess tournaments throughout the area.
Piano Class
Private thirty minute lessons are available for piano, trumpet, clarinet, saxophone and drums. Also, small group Pre-piano classes are taught to Primary children who are just being introduced to the piano.
Mixed Media Art Class
According to Pablo Picasso, "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." Art classes here are taught with an emphasis on tapping into every child's inner artist and instilling the confidence to follow one's own creativity now and throughout life.
Each art lesson attempts to strike a balance between freedom and structure. Students focus on the basic elements of design (line, shape, color, pattern, texture and value) and learn to integrate these concepts into their artwork as they explore such things as traditions from other cultures, holiday customs, and the work of other artists (both living and non-living).
