Extracurricular Activities
Sports Club
All students have the opportunity to participate in the Intramural Sports Club. Supportive of our school’s mission to raise up champions for God, the sports club provides students with the opportunity to participate in recreational sports while walking out principles of servant leadership and godly sportsmanship. Through the experience of play, the students learn the fundamentals of various sports. In addition, older students are provided leadership training as they work with younger students. During days of inclement weather, students are taught principles of godly health, including instruction from the Word of God. Our philosophy is to view sports as a ministry tool in reaching out to people with the love of Christ. Students enjoy playing sports while also growing in godly character and in leadership capacity.
Art Club
Students have the opportunity to develop their
artistic abilities in the Art Club. The Art Club is a program geared toward the
enjoyment of art through different projects and crafts. Our goal is to provide a relaxed environment in which the students
learn about various mediums used in art and discover how they can use their
God-given creativity to advance His Kingdom. Each session is geared toward
specific grade ranges. Three different six-week seasons are offered for the
following grade ranges: 7-12th grades, 3-6th grades, and
K-2nd grades.
Drama
Our students also have the opportunity to develop their gifts through periodic drama programs. A critical component of being equipped as a leader is developing one’s communication skills, and drama provides an excellent venue for such growth. More specifically, drama helps to develop important leadership skills of preparation, poise, and expression. The simple act of learning to project one’s voice in an appropriate manner is critical to one’s development as a leader. Students grow through the process of learning and acting of parts, speaking of lines, singing of songs, and leading their peers and younger students. Of course, drama at Living Grace Christian School involves the production of programs that glorify the Lord and communicate His redemptive message.
Chess Club
The mission of the chess club is to help our students develop the fruit of the Spirit as well as their minds while playing the very strategic game of chess. Chess is a game that challenges children to use their minds to their maximum effort, to think logically, to make wise decisions, to count the cost, and to increase their ability to focus. It is a game that requires patience, gentleness, humility, and self-control. As a game of logical thinking, chess provides the opportunity for children to work through and develop victorious strategies. This practice translates into developing life skills that help our students in many areas of their Christian walk.
Worship Team
The student worship team is one way our students have the opportunity to be equipped to be champions for God. The students on the worship team grow in becoming servant leaders in leading the student body in celebrating our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. At Living Grace Christian School, we call the students to praise the Lord with all of their hearts in spirit and in truth. This training occurs during our weekly chapel service. Students on the worship team use their leadership and musical gifts, including those of singing and the use of instruments.
Homework Club
Students work on homework, can receive help on their assignments, and can play educational games.
