Lower School Clubs and Activities

Students have wonderful opportunities to explore various clubs at the elementary level. Throughout the educational process, students are often instructed on what they need to learn. Clubs allow students to make choices in areas in which they would like to further interest.  Fourth and 5th grade students are afforded the opportunity to further their knowledge in the areas of art, music or drama.  Equally, there are opportunities to delve into robotics, engineering, or chess. The topics may vary each year, but the excitement of “choosing” is always the highlight of our Lower School clubs.  

SCISA (South Carolina Independent School Association) coordinates all academic competitions.

Battle of the Books is for 4th & 5th grade students who love to read.  From a predetermined list of books and in a small group format, students must be able to answer the question “In what book…” 

State Spelling Bee is for 3rd-5th grade students.  The top 2 students per grade level compete with regional schools.  State competition is available if students are successful at the region level.

State Science Fair is held each spring.  The top seven 5th grade projects compete by age group and division.
