The Student Activities Program
 

Although the primary objective of The Donoho School is to emphasize academic preparation for college, a wide variety of cocurricular activities are available to the students. Leadership, discipline, cooperation, loyalty, responsibility, and sportsmanship are among the positive characteristics which are developed through student activities. All clubs and organizations have a school-appointed advisor. A high percentage of students are actively involved in the various programs.

 

Peer tutorial, religion class, math and science Olympiad teams, a student-run store, student government, and a newspaper are some of the activities provided at the Lower School . The Middle School also offers junior varsity athletic competition and cheerleading. In the Upper School , special interest clubs are available in drama, science, math, French, Spanish, and computer science. National honorary groups include Mu Alpha Theta (math), National Honor Society, and the National French Honor Society. Knox Concert Series Service Club, SAAD, Interact and Hi-Y are examples of service-oriented organizations available. Students showing an interest in journalistic endeavors produce the school annual (Gauntlet), the school newspaper (The Pen Feather), and an art literary magazine (The Lure). Leadership opportunities are available through the Student Government Association and the Honor Council. The Center for the Fine Arts houses a spacious band room with individual practice rooms, a choral room, and a visual arts studio. Private lessons are offered in voice, piano, guitar, and violin. Several art exhibits are hosted each year. These activities plus a diverse athletic program allow every student the opportunity to enhance individuality and creativity.
