Sample of extra curricular activities/sports offered at ESM for K-12 students

One goal of ESM’s Youth Development and Leadership Team is for all students to participate in one or more extra-curricular clubs or activities. Involvement fosters connections and helps students develop positive relationships while offering an opportunity to use communication and collaboration skills. We offer a variety of age-appropriate opportunities based on current student interests to encourage involvement. This list is for general purposes and is subject to change.
