We send our children to school because we want them to receive a good education that will help them succeed in life. However, we also want them to be able to develop good social skills, create lasting friendships and get involved in activities at school that happen outside of the classroom. That is why it’s important for schools to offer extracurricular activities. If you are looking for a South Tampa FL Christian school, make sure to check and see what extracurricular activities they offer. Though most Christian schools offer all types of clubs and activities that public or other private schools offer, the available clubs vary by school.

Types of clubs and activities

There are not many clubs or extracurricular activities that a Christian school won’t offer simply because they are a Christian school. Therefore, you do not have to sacrifice any activities by going to a Christian school. Regardless, you will need to make sure that the specific schools you’re interested in offer the clubs and activities you want. Some typical extracurricular activities that Christian schools offer are:

1. STEM-related extracurriculars, such as robotics club and coding club.
2. Athletics of all sorts for both boys and girls, including baseball, football, soccer, track, weightlifting, volleyball etc. 
3. Performing arts and fine arts such as theater and art clubs.
4. Service and community involvement clubs like Key club.
5. Other social clubs such as Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) and 4-H club.
6. Honors societies and debate clubs.

Some schools may choose not to offer some of these clubs and activities at their school. For example, Bayshore Christian School, a private high school in Tampa, requires all students to complete service hours throughout their education. Therefore, they do not have extracurricular service clubs available for their students to join.

Each school is different. The best way you can inquire more about the specific clubs and activities that a school has is by visiting their website. You can also call the school about any questions you might have regarding extracurricular activities.
