Guitar Club - Wednesday 3:45 pm - 4:45 pm
Provides students with a space to learn guitar at their own pace.

We have eight guitars on campus that students may use. If students prefer to bring their own instruments to the guitar club, they may. Students will learn major chords, minor chords, and how to play a scale before diving into learning a song.

The Cosmetology Club is a fun and interactive introduction to the study of skin, hair, and nails. Students meet once a week to participate in hands-on activities including hairstyling on mannequins, makeup tutorials, skin care protocols, nail care, and more. We plan to invite guest speakers from the cosmetology profession to come and share with us as well. 

Conversational Spanish Club - Thursday 3:45 pm - 4:45 pm
Conversational Spanish Club allows students to practice their Spanish verbal and reading language skills by playing games and participating in peer discussions, and their reading and writing skills by utilizing district textbooks to learn vocabulary, grammar, and about Latino culture.
