America’s Battle of the Books is a widely recognized, reading incentive program.  This will be Brookside’s first year participating in this competition.  Students in this club will be required to read the 15 books on the Homeschool/Christian Battle of the Books List.  During club time, students will have some time to read and discuss the books as well as time to take notes that they will use to study throughout the year.  This club will culminate in May with a school-level competition where individuals will compete for the title of Battle of the Books Champion.  

Child Evangelism Fellowship is a worldwide, Bible-based organization.  This is a faith-based club that focuses on teaching positive values, character building, and Bible stories in a fun and interactive way. Led by trained volunteers and based on Christian principles, students engage in songs, memory verses, object lessons, games, and age-appropriate discussions. The goal is to provide a welcoming space where students can explore spiritual concepts and build strong moral foundations in a supportive environment.  During this club, students will strengthen their own walk with Christ while learning to share the Gospel in a child-friendly way with others.

The Robotics Club introduces students to the exciting world of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) through the design and construction of robots. Students will work in teams to build robots using robotics kits, focusing primarily on hands-on building and mechanical design. They’ll also explore the basics of electronics by working with circuit kits to understand how components like sensors, switches, and motors function. While there will be some basic coding, the main emphasis is on engineering, teamwork, and creative problem-solving. This club is a great choice for students interested in building, tinkering, and technology.  

The Visual Arts Club allows students to explore their creativity and artistic talents through various media such as drawing, painting, sculpture, collage, and more. Students will learn techniques, explore different styles and artists, and have opportunities to work on personal and group projects. It's perfect for students who love to create, express themselves visually, and grow their artistic skills in a fun, relaxed environment.  Students in this club will be helping to create several gallery spaces in our Main Campus that will be updated monthly, throughout the school year.  

The NC Envirothon is an exciting natural resource education program designed to challenge students in an interactive, outdoor competition where middle and high school teams (consisting of 3-5 students per team) are tested in areas of Aquatic Ecology, Current Environmental Issues, Soils and Land Use, Forestry, and Wildlife.  Students participating in this club would need to 

read and be familiar with the study materials  of all areas and to become an expert in 2 of the 5 areas.  Weekly club meetings will include taking notes, watching research videos on a variety of topics within the tested areas, and completing weekly experiments related to the competition subject matter.  Students participating in this club will be expected to compete at the regional level on March 19th and if the Brookside team places high enough, the state level in late April.
