Extracurricular Activities

The Hartford School District recognizes the need for comprehensive student activities outside of regular school hours to enhance curriculum, content learning outcomes, and transferable skills. Extra-curricular activities provide new learning experiences, develop a greater sense of belonging within the community, and allow students the opportunity to develop socially, intellectually, emotionally, and physically. The Hartford School District believes the successful operation of any extra-curricular program is dependent upon the formation of sound policy and clear guidelines. These elements provide the extra-curricular programs with a sound base which allows for flexibility due to changing needs and still functions within the framework of the educational and organizational policies of the Hartford School Board and the state of Vermont.
