High School Activities

The Graded Activities Program allows students to participate in a wealth of activities that complement but are not part of the regular school curriculum. Through the activities program, students can pursue an area of personal interest in a collaborative setting, develop intercultural competency, and become engaged, ethical citizens. We believe that:

• Activities are an integral part of Graded’s overall curricular program.
• Every student should have the opportunity to become involved to some extent.
• Sponsors and students should, at all levels, develop and exhibit accepted attitudes of cooperation, citizenship, good sportsmanship, and dedication.

The program is organized into four areas: Academics and Leadership, Arts, Athletics, and Service. Students are encouraged to participate in activities throughout the school year. While many activities welcome new participants at any time, some are seasonal, have limited enrollment, or require tryouts. Students are therefore encouraged to explore opportunities and register early in the school year. High school students are also encouraged to attend the annual Activity Fair, held during FLEX at the beginning of the school year, to learn more about the wide range of clubs and activities available.

Please refer to the High School Athletics and Activities Information Document for the most up-to-date list of offerings, along with schedules, locations, eligibility requirements, registration procedures, participation guidelines, and tryout information. Please note that activities may vary from semester to semester.

Registration Guidelines 

To prepare for the upcoming athletic season, Graded offers a pre-season program for High School and Varsity competitive teams. During this period, coaches conduct tryouts to select team members and prepare athletes for upcoming competitions. Students interested in participating should register for tryouts using this form.

Tryouts are used to determine the most appropriate team placement for each athlete. While there is no limit to the number of students who may participate in tryouts, selection to a team is not guaranteed.
