Spanish School Activities

The goal of the Spanish School's cocurricular activities is to tap into the interests, talents, and passions of our broad range of students and faculty, and then to build bridges between those capacities and the rich culture of the Hispanic world.

These activities allow you to take your classroom knowledge into the field, immediately and constantly. Your pledge to speak only Spanish draws you out of your room and into a community and a culture that shares your ambitions.

Activities offered during the summer session include the annual Baile de disfraces (Costume party), Cabaret, choir and theater performances, cooking club, dance lessons, soccer and volleyball.

In 2011, Modern Dance and a film-making activity were added for the first time, and the hiking club expanded to include over a hundred hikers for some of the outings.  A variety of guest lectures and films were presented in the summer of 2011, to encompass fiction, poetry, anthropology, art and the future of publishing.
