Many people seem to think that online school means falling off the face of the earth.
And perhaps a decade ago, that would be true. In this digital age, however, connecting with students throughout the state is easier than ever.

How Online Student Clubs Work at Primavera
Online student clubs are very similar to student clubs at a traditional school. There are meetings to attend and fun events to join in. The only difference is you can interact with classmates and make friends from the comfort of your home, in your pajamas if you choose!
Every club meets online twice monthly. If you join the club, you are not required to attend every meeting, but we definitely encourage it! You’ll tune in online through the PSP and discuss certain topics with a club advisor and club members. If you are in a creative club, such as the Art Club or Creative Writing, you will get to display your work and view other student’s creative pieces. This is a great way to meet people who share your same interests.
The meeting times vary per club. If you would like to know a specific time, email the clubs. You can find that in the “About Primavera’s Student Clubs section above ??.
Each month, clubs also have in-person events to attend. Again, these are not mandatory, but we encourage you to attend. The events happen at various places throughout the state. Activities range from First Fridays in Downtown Phoenix to Fear Farm in Glendale to volunteering at St. Vincent de Paul.
Clubs also participate in planning and decorating for Primavera’s prom, which occurs in May.
