Clubs and Activities

​Excellence is our focus in both academics and in extra-curriculars. Students participate in a wide variety of clubs and organizations at BC in order to broaden their academic learning, share their talents with others, and experience leadership and service. The activities also allow students to learn to use leisure time well, both now and in adult life. Bourgade Catholic provides a foundation for tomorrow's leaders. Our students are challenged each day in the classroom and through a variety of extracurricular-activities designed to encourage students to stretch, grow, achieve and become leaders who will transform the world by becoming more globally aware citizens.  
 
CORE Team
