Clubs

In addition to athletic teams and performing arts opportunities, Holy Child offers a variety of clubs and activities to meet the needs and interests of the student body. Clubs meet once a week after school. This gives students a chance to get involved, meet students in different grades, and spend time with those who share a common interest.
