Clubs & Organizations
Upper School students enjoy a wide variety of opportunities to connect with like-minded others in our student clubs and organizations. Students can get involved in clubs linked to academics (such as Math Club or Latin Club), the arts (such as Voices of the Knight or Knightingales a capella singing groups), global issues (such as Asian Cultural Society or Model U.N.), helping the community (such as a host of community service and environmental initiatives), and other topics. Students can run for student government, and/or write for The Spectator (arts and literature), Perspective (yearbook), or The Vanguard, our award-winning student newspaper. If students identify a new club idea, they are welcome to start one.
In virtually every area of student life at BB&N, the School encourages self-reliance, knowledge of oneself and a capacity for leadership.
Clubs & Activities
Many extracurricular programs are available at BB&N. Some demand a substantial commitment of time; some are single events. All give students the opportunity to learn new skills, follow special interests, and meet students from other grades. These activities also give students and faculty the chance to cooperate on a unique basis. Activities are not required, but we encourage all students to participate.
