EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES AND SPECIAL PROGRAMS

Extensive enrichment opportunities are offered across the four (4) departments that make up SHABACH!  Christian Academy.  Recognizing that the wider the range of the experience that a child has, the greater is the capacity of the young learner to acquire new content. In addition to an emphasis on the Arts and STEM Aviation, our enrichment program has included: Dance, Drama, Golf, Tennis, HW Club, Beginning Band, Keyboarding, Gymnastics, and Robotics. Our Enrichment Club catalog is updated each year.
