At Lakecrest, we offer a diverse array of competitive and noncompetitive extracurricular sports after school, including but not limited to Cross Country Running, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, Tennis, Badminton, K-3 sports skills program, and Track & Field. These activities not only foster physical fitness but also provide ample opportunities for students to meet and interact with their peers.
In addition to sports, we offer a range of other extracurricular activities. These may include, Chess Club, Science Club, Robotics, Library Helpers, Glee Club and Eco-Kids Club. These sessions typically run for a semester, allowing students to explore diverse interests and develop various skills.
We understand the importance of keeping parents and students informed. Each semester, a comprehensive outline of the available extracurricular activities is provided to our families. This ensures that parents and students can make informed choices about participation in these enriching and varied extracurricular experiences.
