Ski Club is open to all families in the school. The club members meet at West Mountain weekly to enjoy snowboarding and skiing January through March.
Roots and Shoots
The Roots and Shoots club, a chapter of the international Roots and Shoots program of the Jane Goodall Institute, has been meeting in the high school since 2001. Our mission is to promote awareness and action that improves our world in three areas: human communities, animal communities, and the environment. Projects have included energy reduction initiatives in the high school, fund raising to support nomadic reindeer herders in Mongolia, children's programs in Afghanistan, Cambodia, and South Africa, and a public education watershed protection program in Saratoga Springs.
Additional extra curricular activities and clubs, such as Chess Club or Dance Club, may form on a yearly basis depending on student and faculty interest.
