Co-Curricular Activities
Students can participate in activities that allow them to discover new interests, solve problems, think both critically and creatively, all while developing their self-confidence as learners.
Details and sign-up information provided below. Registration links, where available, are found below the activity's description.
Band
Music Education Services offers all children the opportunity to join the school band beginning in 4th grade. In September, students have the opportunity to attend a performance during which all of the band instruments are demonstrated and explained. Students then have the chance to try two instruments as part of a hands-on exploration of their interests.
The STS Band students play several evening concerts throughout the year, combining with more than 150 other students from six local Catholic schools, and participate in both a solo festival and an honor band festival. In addition to the curricular concerts, students play at the Veterans Day assem
bly, Christmas concert, all school music concerts and several masses per year.
St. Theresa School recognizes the importance of music in the development of the whole child, and will offer two opportunities for students praise God with song. The choirs will sing at
St. Theresa School's Choirschool mses, liasturgies, and at other school functions throughout the year.

Cub Scouts (Boys & Girls Grades K through 5)
St. Theresa charters Pack 91, which is designated as a Family Scouting Pack. When you join the Scouts, your family becomes a part of a local group called a pack that meets once a month for adventures, activities, and recognition of achievements. Pack events are open to the entire family. Within the pack, your Cub Scout will be a part of a smaller group, based on grade and gender, that meets a few times each month for age-specific activities.
Pack 91 Cub Scouts and their families go on amazing adventures! Engage in STEM activities, go on hikes, and learn to fish and camp all while developing lifelong skills and memories. Scouts take part in activates within the school, church, and local community such as food drives, service projects, and honoring our Veterans. The whole family can participate in well-known annual Scouting events such as the Pinewood Derby and Rain-gutter Regatta miniature boat race.
Scouting builds character, responsibility and friendships that last a lifetime. If you would like to Register, click HERE. For more information or to join Cub Scout Pack 91, contact: [email protected]
Intramural Sports (grades 1-4) Led by the STS Athletic Director, the Intramural Sports program gives students an opportunity to socialize, learn sportsmanship, and have fun while exercising in the gym!
Athletic Programs St. Theresa Catholic School is concerned with the development of the WHOLE person - the religious, moral, social, and academic dimensions. We believe that participation in athletics is an
important part of the student's physical development. Through participation in the St. Theresa Sports Program students may develop life-long skills and positive values. These values include leadership, healthful living habits, self-discipline, integrity, teamwork,
respect for rules and regulations, and the ability to participate with dignity and grace.
St. Theresa Athletics provides numerous competitive sports programs as an extension of the St. Theresa School academic program. Participants will learn the fundamentals of each sport and be given the opportunity to develop strong, healthy, and disciplined minds and bodies. Participants will also develop a sense of good sportsmanship, fair play, and team spirit.
