Students will use school buses, city buses, walk or bike to their various destinations.

On any given Friday afternoon, students can be seen engaging in the following activities:

• Lead or join an interest-based club
• Engage in games with each other and staff
• Join the e-sports league
• Sing karaoke and cheer on their peers
• Craft
• Play collective games in the gym
