QND believes extracurricular activities are a vital part of the total program of a school. We believe that participation in these extracurricular activites is an educational experience and should be offered for all youths who attend QND. Any and all students are encouraged to participate in any activity in which they are interested.
One goal of QND is to build success in each activity, but we also try to instill in the students a sense of personal discipline and pride. We must learn to have pride not only in ourselves, but in our activity and in our school. We attempt to build team spirit and club or organization spirit that encourages effort, self sacrifice, dedication, preparation, and self-discipline for the good of the activity. Learning to work hard is perhaps the outstanding feature of the educational components. In extracurricular activities, the develpment of young people so they become successful, productive, and positive adults is an outstanding feature.
