Beyond Academics



At St. Helen School, we believe in educating the whole child. Therefore we offer students the opportunity to participate in both academic, and non- academic activities which help them to grow in mind, body, social and leadership skills. A few of our programs include:

Harmonious Melodies

Music is an integral part of the St. Helen experience. Our music programs allow students to explore their musical talents and share their melodies with the school community. From choir to band, we encourage creative expression through music.

All of These and More!

Beyond these categories, we also offer a wide range of other extracurricular activities. These include art clubs, drama productions, sign language clubs, and more. The possibilities are as diverse as our students' interests.

Extracurricular activities at St. Helen School are designed to complement our rigorous academic programs and help students discover their talents and passions. We believe that these experiences are not just about having fun but also about building character, fostering leadership, and developing skills that will serve students throughout their lives.
