Enders-Salk has a wide variety of clubs available for student participation during the 2024-25 school year. As you review the clubs, please keep in mind the dates and times of the clubs your child is interested in attending. We have many students interested in participating in these clubs and need to limit the number of participants for a variety of reasons. We often have students start a club and then leave the club, because there is another one of more interest to them and then that eliminates another student from participating who may have really wanted to be a part of that club.
We appreciate your help with carefully choosing the clubs your child participates in to ensure as many students as possible have an opportunity to participate in a club of their choice! Each club sponsor will send home flyers and permission slips for the clubs listed below prior to the club start date. Please return those permission slips as soon as you can since space does fill up quickly. We are looking forward to your child participating in our clubs and for a great 2024-25 school year!
