Clubs

A club is defined as a student-initiated, maintained, driven and inclusive group that continuously and consistently aligns itself with the Christ-centered goals, vision and purpose of JSerra. Further, these groups may choose to affiliate with a larger, national non-profit organization, but must keep in mind that this larger organization must fall within the same regimented scope as stated above.

Types of Clubs

Service, which focuses on the welfare of a group or communities through health, education, etc.
Extracurricular, which focuses on enhancing academics
Social, which focuses on cultivating school spirit or strengthening student camaraderie
