“The opportunities provided through extracurricular experiences at St. Margaret’s complement the learning that goes on in the classroom. These activities allow students to demonstrate their organizational, personal and leadership skills in a practical way, while nurturing their passions, encouraging a pursuit of interests and enriching their lives and the lives of everyone around them.” Lora D. Allison School-wide Community Service Director and Upper School Director of Student Activities
