Clubs & Organizations

At Palmetto Christian Academy, upper school students are encouraged and supported as they enjoy, explore, and commit to their personal interests and passions.  There are a wide variety of clubs and activities designed for this purpose. Students find that joining a club is a great way to get involved in campus life, meet other students, and, of course, to simply have fun.

Student Clubs & Organizations 

National Honor Society

The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students. More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to recognize those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1921.

The Student Government Association is designed to provide PCA upper school students with representation, services, and advocacy within the school structure. The association provides quality leadership for, and accountability to, its constituency by recognizing that strength arises from engagement and dialogue with faculty and staff.

Since 1954, Fellowship of Christian Athletes has been challenging coaches and athletes on the professional, college, high school, junior high and youth levels to use the powerful platform of sport to reach every coach and every athlete with the transforming power of Jesus Christ.
