CLUBS & ACTIVITIES
NSU University School offers a multitude of extracurricular opportunities to challenge and nurture our diverse community of learners, athletes, artists, musicians, and more. Through our robust activities offerings and special events, students of every interest, passion, and talent are sure to find enrichment and inspiration. In fact, we continually encourage our students to bring their ideas for new clubs and/or activities to the forefront, therefore our list of extracurricular opportunities is always growing.
Our Lower, Middle, and Upper Schools offer award-winning theater productions, news shows, robotics teams, speech and debate teams, musical ensembles, and more.
In Lower School, students explore their creativity and curiosity through a variety of clubs, including Key Club, Book Club, Music Clubs, and Art Club. They also enjoy exciting events such as the Spring Fairytale Festival, Shark Tank Jr., Math Olympiad, and JA BizTown. Leadership opportunities begin early with programs like Safety Patrol and Student Government, empowering students to take on responsibility.
Middle School offers even more opportunities for students to dive deeper into their interests. With clubs like Model UN, the Marine Science Club, Stock Market Club, and MAKO Book Club, students can explore new passions. Leadership and service programs, including the National Junior Honor Society, Student Government, and the New 2U Ambassador Program, help students develop valuable skills. Special events like overnight field trips for each grade, Shark Games, and the Spring Utopia Festival add to the excitement. Our athletic teams compete in a wide range of sports, including baseball, football, soccer, rowing, tennis, swimming, diving, and more.
By Upper School, students transform their interests into lifelong passions. With over 50 clubs to choose from—including DECA, Science Bowl, Operation Smile, and the FINesse Dance Team—there is something for everyone. Students look forward to special events such as the Spaghetti Dinner, World Language Competitions, and Pep Rallies, while also engaging in meaningful community service with organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Feeding South Florida, and the American Heart Association. Leadership programs, student publications, the arts, and a robust athletic program with teams across nearly every sport provide students with endless opportunities to grow and thrive.
At every stage, we have a wide array of offerings for students to discover and develop their unique passions, preparing them to excel and lead in whatever path they choose.
