Outdoor Education Club

Outdoor education at Luther College High School began in the mid1970’s with Luther Biology teacher Randy Brooks coordinating field trips for his high school students. At that time, grade 11s hiked and repelled in the Montana Badlands, while grade 12s canoed on Otter Lake, along the Churchill River. Since then, outdoor education has become a popular co-curricular club that invites grade 10 through 12 students who love the great outdoors and are willing to experience something new to participate in special wilderness activities. In early June, the students of Luther College High School travel nine hours north to carry on the school’s legacy of canoeing Otter Lake.

Photo Club

Photo Club is a fun way for students to get together and learn the fundamentals of photography. Pictures taken by members are displayed in a variety of means, including being framed and hung throughout the school for all to enjoy. Members of the Photo Club volunteer to capture the essence of the different clubs and events for the yearbook as well as pictures for the Tatler. The club participates in Fine Arts Night. This club is open to everyone who has a camera or a phone.
