New Summit Academy offers many student-lead clubs, depending on the interest of the students. Some examples of current and/or past clubs include: surfing, rock climbing, skateboarding, art, chess, film, video gaming, cooking, yoga, biking, fishing, running, leadership, garden, and more!
Below is just a sampling of some of our longest-standing clubs on campus. Enjoy! |
Climbing ClubA consistent club that always attracts a number of students. With a rock wall on campus, students can always improve their skills.
Film ClubA medium sized club that attracts those who love to watch and analyze films. The films that are watched are not "mainstream." They often require a lot of attention and force you to think about what is happening. The films can be rated R and are followed by a group discussion.
Cooking ClubStudents learn about food and healthy eating. They cook dinner for all staff and students every Sunday. They learn typical Costa Rican dishes and how to prepare their own meals.
