The high school experience would not be complete without the opportunity for students to participate in extracurricular activities.  Developing responsibility, independence, communication, and leadership skills are traits that students should have the opportunity to strengthen or acquire in their school environment and through participation in school activities.
 
For these reasons, St. Bernard’s High School strives to make a wide range of extracurricular activities available to its students.

Art Club
Students interested in visual arts are given the opportunity to explore various techniques in drawing, painting, and much more.  No prior experience necessary.  All are welcome!  More information: Ms. Boissoneau, [email protected]

Campus Ministry
The heart of STB is Campus Ministry, and the heart of Campus Ministry is the school’s maxim: Love One Another. We live out this motto by hosting community events, rooted in the teachings of Christ, including school-wide spiritual retreats, Catholic liturgies and prayer services, and community outreach projects (food drives, cloting drives, and more). Participants are encouraged to grow in their relationship with God as they share in the Christian message. All faith traditions are welcome!  Learn More

Cheer Club
Cheer Club is open to any boy or girl that would like to lead the dog pound to cheer on the Varsity football team on Friday nights. Some dance/cheer experience is suggested but not required. Cheer club forms in August. More information: Ms. Rainville, [email protected]

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
St. Bernard's is proud to have 32% students of color.  This club provides a safe space to discuss issues relevant to student members.  We collaborate with National Honor Society to bring in diversity speakers for all-school assemblies.  We are currently learning about Black Wall Street, Google Surveys, redlining, and how to create black generational wealth.  We are always welcoming new members and allies. More information: Ms. Tullio, [email protected]

Jazz / Rock Band 
For instrumentalists with two or more years of experience, Band is designed to feature the talents of St. Bernard’s musicians in group performance.  Students receive academic credit for participating.  Join us to improve your skills and share the gift of music with the STB community!  More information: Mr. Bonanno, [email protected]

Music Ministry 
Whether at monthly Mass, our annual Lessons and Carols celebration, or attending an all-school assembly, you’ve likely been graced with the beautiful sounds of STB’s Music Ministry. A committed group of singers, guitarists, pianists, and percussionists, Music Ministry performs at nearly every STB event, including at monthly Mass and all holiday celebrations. All members of the community are welcome to participate, regardless of prior experience.

National Honor Society 
As an accredited chapter of the National Honor Society (NHS), NHS is the only club at STB that operates on an invite-only basis. Students with a weighted GPA of 3.70 or higher and who are in good standing with the school’s administration are given the opportunity to engage in service and leadership opportunities within a nationally recognized organization. In order to remain in good standing, NHS requires its members to complete a minimum of twenty hours of community service per year and to engage in leadership opportunities within the school. In the past, school-wide service projects have included city-wide blood drives, organizing all-school assemblies, and honoring the graves of veterans on Memorial Day, among many others. NHS challenges its members to be citizen-scholars, and the STB chapter of NHS is particularly vibrant. Learn More

Photography Club
Students learn the basics of photography and contribute work to the school’s art galleries, newspaper, yearbook, and digital/print media. No prior experience necessary.  All are welcome!  More information: Ms. Boissoneau, [email protected]

Soccer Club 
Created by the 2021 freshmen class, the STB Soccer Club is an extracurricular activity that allows Bernardians to have fun, meet people and exercise with friends. We use our mad soccer skills as a way to learn how to “think on the run,” release all pressure from school work, and maintain our fitness. Incoming members are always surprised at how easy it is to join in the fun and to play basic soccer. There is no experience required and everyone is invited to join regardless of their skill level. Come join us!  More information: Mr. Guevara, [email protected]

STB-TV
STB-TV is a student-run broadcast organization that presents the morning news live to the STB community, every day. From surprise guest anchors to sports features, special segments and student-created advertisements, STB TV keeps the student body informed about all things STB (while having a lot of fun, too). Student participants can settle in front of the camera as repeat anchors, work behind the scenes writing scripts, or run tech in the control room. Either way, come and join us for some real, live local journalism! More information: Mr. Dee, [email protected]

Student Government
As one of the largest organizations at STB, Student Government comprises both Student Council and Class Officers. Students from each grade have the opportunity to run for office every year, by appealing to their classmates in a democratic election. Once chosen, student leaders work to plan and carry out fundraisers, class and school events, and promote school spirit. These boards often have weekly meetings and meet monthly with the school principal and Dean of Students to discuss the development of student life at STB. All leaders welcome! Learn More

Yearbook
As the oldest student organization at St. Bernard’s, Yearbook Club is charged with the yearly publication of The Bernardian, STB’s long-standing yearbook, first printed in 1929. Club members are responsible for documenting student life through pictures and written excerpts, and then arranging their work for publication in a professional manner and in accordance with strict deadlines. Come join this historic organization and put your mark on the community for years to come. More information: Ms. Rainville, [email protected]
