Clubs & Activities

Enthusiasm runs high for clubs and extra-curricular activities at Bay. A majority of students participate in one or more club organizations, which include school community-focused groups such as the student council, social events club, and yearbook committee; arts and musical groups, involving instrumental and dance performance; the Outing Club, which sponsors outdoor adventures and wilderness training; and clubs that support student interests, such as engineering, fantasy gaming, and journalism.

Club meeting times are scheduled during the academic day each week. In addition, the groups may meet in the evenings and on weekends. Each club is supported by a member of the faculty or administration who serves as an advisor/mentor. Clubs are organized and run by their student members. Students are encouraged to propose ideas and build support for new clubs; thus the selection of clubs varies from one academic year to the next. Participating in club activities is a great way to both pursue a passion and build close relationships with fellow students and teachers.

Bay on Stage - Drama, Dance and Music Groups
Throughout each year, the Bay School stage is surrounded by thunderous applause in response
to a series of performances by Bay School students. Three full-scale dramatic performances are
produced annually, directed by both students and the drama department staff. All Bay School
students are encouraged to audition for roles. Recent performances have included the musical
Little Shop of Horrors, The Last Night of Ballyhoo, The Secret in the Wings, and Noises Off.

Music routinely fills the air thanks to the Bay Blues Band and rock ensemble, both of which
perform regularly at all-school gatherings and off campus for community groups and schools.
The Bay School dance program also performs an inspiring mix of salsa, hip hop, and traditional
dances at all-school gatherings and special events on campus.
