Clubs & Organizations

Getting Involved at Maranatha

An educational experience focused solely on academics does not fulfill the requirements of our mission to develop a student’s “whole” person–spirit, soul, and body. Therefore, Maranatha Christian Academy offers a variety of clubs and activities for both lower and upper school students to reach those ends. While a few of our clubs and organizations have certain qualifications to join, others just require interest, inquiry, and/or hard work.
