At HANC HS, students push beyond classes

HANC High School hosted its annual club fair, now known as Beyond the Curriculum. The event (pictured) offered students a way to explore how to get involved beyond the classroom and discover activities that reflect their passions, talents and values.

Students were introduced to a wide range of committees, from Pre-Med to Big Brother/Big Sister, Bikkur Cholim, and the Drama Program.

They explored opportunities to contribute to our student publications — The HANC Herald and Midrishei HANC — as well as academic initiatives such as the Peer Tutoring Society and the STEM Journal.

The school’s competitive and academic teams were also represented, including Chess, College Bowl, Debate, and Model UN. They provide students with valuable outlets to sharpen their minds, showcase their skills, and develop teamwork and leadership.

The fair also highlighted many clubs that meet during the weekly Club Hour, giving students a wide variety of options — creative outlets like Art, Photography, Culinary, and Music; active options such as Box Ball and Spikeball; intellectually engaging groups like Robotics and Makerspace; and socially conscious initiatives like the Environmental Club.
