We believe in enriching student learning through multiple opportunities for students to broaden their school experience through a rich co-curricular program. Teachers and parents collaborate to offer the most comprehensive co-curricular program in the Diocese.

“The Bolt” Literary Magazine: The literary magazine “The Bolt” is edited and produced by students, and accepts submissions of original poetry and prose by students in all grade levels.

Book Club: Students who love to read will find like-minded students in the Book Club moderated

by our librarian. High-quality literary selections for reading and discussion are made by the students

and vary by genre to include works of fantasy, science fiction, mystery, etc.

Choir: Offered for students in grades 2-8, the school and parish choir sings for liturgies and performs at the annual Diocesan Choral Festival and for Grandparents Day, the Christmas Program and the Spring Program (Evening of the Arts).

Cooking Club: Developed by parents and teachers, the Cooking Club is a fun way to engage

students in the pleasures of preparing a family meal. Their monthly cooking adventures take place

after school in the St. Lucy Parish Kitchen!

student body throughout the year and evening performances for parents, family and friends.

Evening of the Arts: The Evening of the Arts will feature the performing and visual arts as students showcase their skills in drama, choir, and artistic works developed in art class.

Lego-Robotics Club: Students with a passion for technology and problem-solving can work on

robotics projects in supervised lab time after school.

meet on campus outside of school hours, and are organized by current and former parents.

Athletics Program: Through the after-school sports program, St. Lucy School competes with several other schools in the West Valley Youth League. The primary goal of the sports program is to enhance the complete education of the student-athlete, to promote good sportsmanship and a spirit of fair play, and to reinforce the value of healthy exercise. All students in the fifth through eighth grades are eligible to participate in the following sports:

• Fall: Football (Boys), Volleyball (Girls)

• Winter: Basketball (Boys and Girls)

Student Council: Student leadership is encouraged as students plan and execute a wide range of activities throughout the school year. The St. Lucy School Student Council, composed of elected officers and representatives, supports the philosophy of SLS by calling students to service, prayer and spirit-building activities. Student officers are elected in the spring for the following year, and representatives are elected by their classes each fall.

Student Newspaper: Published quarterly by the seventh graders, the newspaper includes articles, interviews, games, cartoons, and opinion pieces.

Summer Academic and Sports Programs

Students can enjoy participating in summer programs that offer an academic component and/or an

outdoor activity focus. Joining both provides for a full day of learning and fun.
