After School Activities

Evenings & Weekends

When the studying is done, Scattergood students spend their downtime in many different ways. The campus farm, pond, prairie, and disc golf course offer a wealth of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The student lounge and music room are always open for foosball, board games, jam sessions, and just hanging out. The campus art studios and kitchen may be used by students with prior permission. 

Clubs arise based on the interests of community members and generally meet in the evenings or on weekends. Anyone can start and join a club, it’s a great way to share and explore interests with other community members. Recent clubs have included ping-pong, D&D, and Magic the Gathering.
