Extracurricular Activities at Zach
At Zach we believe in the importance of giving our students the opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities. To support that belief, Zach offers School Sponsored Clubs, which are taught and facilitated by a PSD employee. Additionally, outside agencies offer Additional Enrichment Activities, which are separate from School Sponsored Clubs, and are taught and facilitated by the outside agency. In both cases, most classes take place around the school day to ease scheduling concerns for families. Additional Enrichment Opportunities are not sponsored by the school or the District. We are simply providing information regarding these opportunities and are not responsible for or supervising them in any way. Families should work specifically with the Additional Enrichment Opportunities that their student(s) participate in as Poudre School District staff do not oversee their policies and procedures. See below for further description of School Sponsored Clubs and Additional Enrichment Opportunities.
School sponsored clubs and additional enrichment activities will be offered for students during 2 “seasons” over the course of the school year…Fall and Spring. These seasons will coincide with the primary breaks on the school calendar to ease scheduling concerns for parents and families.
Seasons:
- Fall: September 2nd - November 21st; registration window opens August 19th
- Spring: January 26th - May 1st; registration window opens January 12th
Registration links for each season will be open on the designated registration window dates. Contact the main office with any questions at 970.488.5100.
