Extracurriculars at Chisholm

There are many opportunities to get involved outside of the classroom at Chisholm! Students engage in extracurriculars within the arts, athletics, & more. Each year, students and staff bring new interests to our evolving list of extracurricular activities.

PERFORMING ARTS

The mission of the drama club is to educate students about the theatrical arts by engaging them in opportunities to view and attend varied performances and ultimately present a signature spring musical to the Chisholm Community. The club strives to foster an appreciation of all forms of performing arts while empowering students through identifying and honing talents.

Under the leadership of our drama teacher, Ms. Keira McClements, student productions from years past include: Annie, Matilda, Junie B. Jones, & more.
