AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS & ATHLETICS
SCHOOL OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY - ADVANCEMENT
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!
Dear Falcon Parents and Students,
We are excited to offer the following clubs to SST students for the 2022-2023 school year. Please choose the clubs you want to sign up for. Please make your selections in a way so that you do not have any scheduling conflicts. Selecting a club does not guarantee that you will be able to join that club since each club/organization has limited spots available. Once all spots are filled, no one else will be allowed to join that club.
Please review all clubs. Payment will be required to remain in the club roster. Once your child is accepted, payment request will be sent to you. Spots are first come, first serve, with the exception of clubs that have tryouts (Robotics, Sports, etc.). Team selections will be based on tryouts.
Please review the after-school clubs details for the 2022-2023 school year and click on the registration link or scan the QR code to sign up.
- One student can join up to a maximum of 2 clubs. (**Make sure to check club days and times**)
- Students MUST be picked up on time. (late fee may be charged for the late pick up)
- A student who misses more than three club meetings without mentor permission may be dismissed from the club.
This is a great opportunity for students to mix with peers from different classes and year groups. Students will benefit from trying activities that are not always available during curriculum times.
**Please contact the listed club advisor for detailed club information.
